Raja Bishan Singh is a 1850 paint by Unknown, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a man standing tall in a light green background. He wears a white shirt with gold buttons, a long purple skirt, and pink stockings. His red hat has a gold trim, and he holds a cane in one hand. The man’s outfit looks fancy, with small details like a star-shaped brooch on his chest. The colors are soft but bright, and the painting feels a bit faded over time. If you like this style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more works like it.
The painting depicts Raja Bishan Singh, who governed Jaipur from 1690 to 1700, shown standing in a white robe (jama), a red turban, and purple trousers against a green backdrop.
