Today my friend suggested we go to the Raja Deen Dayal Photography exhibition.This exhibition was in my wish list so I just grabbed the oppurtunity We reached the Indra Gandhi National centre for Art .
Raja Deen Dayal was born in 1844 at Sardhana near Meerut He recieved his technical education from Thomson Civil Engineering College Roorkee and workedin PWD at Indore .He was encouraged to set up his studio by the RulerTukoji IIIn 1896 he expnded his studio in mumbai and established studio in Secundrabad.He photographed the VI Nizam -Nizam Mahaboob Ali Pasha. He also photographed British,military exercises,hunting expeditions,Nizam palaces-Falaknuma,Aina mahal,Gwalor Fort,Lake Palace to name some and their territory.Other than Nizam Mahaboob Khan he also photographedthe nobility in Hyderabad-Asman Jah Bahadur,Afzar Jung Bahadur,Kishen Preshaad etc
Among his various photographs is a photo that captures unposed ,natural photograph of people listening to first phonograph.
Another photograph named "The Royal Champion Crackshot"is about a shikar expedition which was chronicled by hunting trophies and gigantic displays showing skinned animals .
He died in 1905.
