Royal show

With an aim to give visitors a sense of the opulent life of Indian kings, a four-month long exhibition opened at the Art Gallery of Ontario in Canada on Monday.

Titled 'Maharaja: The Splendour of India’s Royal Courts', it showcases the luxury and legacy of India’s greatest kings.

More than 200 pieces are on display for the first time in Canada, including paintings, furniture, jewellery and a custom-built 1934 Rolls Royce automobile.
