The State elephant of Jaipur at the Retainers Review
I own this wonderful photo. I bought it some time ago and I can say that the detail in person is absolutely amazing. It's such a privilege to get to see one of this photographs in person. I enjoy it very very much.
Beau Geste set 245, the Jaipur elephant (retired)
Beau Geste sets 245, 399, 400 and 401, the Jaipur group (Mace bearers included)
This photo was quoted as Jaipur's, but the list doesn't mention any rath. Again, there are two possibilities: a mistake in the program or someone who wrote the wrong state. Something more for research.
I love what can be seen on the other side: the previous group walking in front of the other side of the amphitheatre. If only this was an original photo (and not a photocopy); I could enlarge it enough to identify the group in front.
The famous horsemen in chain armour. They were so many that everybody took pictures of them.
The horsemen again (Gertrude Bell's photo)
Beau Geste set 72, the Horsemen from Jaipur (retired)
