Many of these depict the various Maharajah's enjoying their sport of Tiger hunting . One of the rarer sets we have is the full collection of images depicting King George V hunting in Nepal at the time of the Delhi Durbar Tour in 1911 a few of which are shown here now and which I hope will give you an insight into how they conducted these grand hunts.

Loved the first photo captioned "loading." The double is a Lancaster .280 hammerless rifle. The shadow we see at the bottom left hand corner of the howdah is that of photographer Ernest Brooks.
