EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Maharaja Bhupinder Singh (1891-1938), the ruling Maharaja of the princely state of Patiala from 1900 to 1938. Maharaja Bhupinder Singh's life was marked by a rich tapestry of history, extravagance, and achievement. He served valiantly in the First World War, seeing action in France, Belgium, Italy, and Palestine, where he rose to the rank of Honorary Lieutenant Colonel. In 1918, he was further honored with the promotion to Honorary Major General. Beyond his military accomplishments, Maharaja Bhupinder Singh was a passionate patron of sports, particularly cricket and polo. His cricket team, the Patiala XI, was renowned for its skill and competitiveness, while his polo team, the Patiala Tigers, was the first to win the coveted Gold Cup in 1922. Maharaja Bhupinder Singh was also a visionary leader, commissioning bold architectural projects that continue to stand as testaments to his reign. He was the first man in India to own an aircraft, further cementing his reputation as a forward-thinking ruler. Personal life was equally intriguing for Maharaja Bhupinder Singh, as he married ten times and fathered 88 children. This photograph is a window into the life of a man who ruled with grace, style, and an unwavering commitment to his people and passions. This image is a historical treasure from the archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, offering a glimpse into the rich history of the princely state of Patiala and the remarkable life of its ruling Maharaja.
