Note du spécialiste

The Palace at Deeg was built by the Jat dynasty of the Royal House of Bharatpur in the 18th Century, as a summer palace and water garden, during the reign of Badan Singh (ruled 1722-33). The dating of these tables suggests that they were acquired either during the reign of Balwant Singh (1825-53) or that of his son Sir Jaswant Singh (1853-93).
