Painting of Maratha Emperor Chattrapati Sambhaji Shivaji Bhonsale Maharaja

Historical Near-Contemporary Painting of Dharamveer Chattrapati Sambhaji Maharaja - Rarest historical Painting kept at Salar Jung Museum of Hyderabad. As a testament to the jewels hidden in Indian museums, a very rare Painting was brought to light by The Deccan image connoisseurs. The valiant Maratha Emperor in a new outfit. Albeit labeled as Maratha Emperor Shivaji the Great instead, on comparison, it is clearly an alternate version of an old painting of his son Chattrapati Sambhaji Shivaji Bhonsale Maharaj. Anyways whether Maratha Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaja or Chattrapati Sambhaji Maharaja, it is still a welcome addition to the public depictions of either of the legendary Hindu rulers.
