About Portrait Of Shungrasoobyer Avergal, Dewan Of Travancore Raja Ravi Varma Vintage Indian Royalty Painting
This is a painting by Raja Ravi Varma of Shungrasoobyer Avergal (1836-1904) who was the Dewan of Travancore. 'Ravi Varma had for long been familiar with the Travancore royal court, having been taken there by his uncle Raja Raja Varma Koil Thampuran at the age of fourteen. It was here where he met and grew to know some of Travancore's most influential people of that period. Sir T. Madhava Row, the forceful Dewan of Travancore from 1858 to 1872 was one such personality. He recognised Ravi Varma's abilities and invited him to the investiture of Sayajirao lll of Baroda in 1880 when he moved there as the Dewan. Madava Row secured for Ravi Varma commissions to make portraits and mythological paintings for Baroda, Indore and other places that continued for many years.
