Rare and little-known memoir by EMILY MERRICK [1842-1921], a member of the Royal Academy, who visited India in the 1890s and undertook commissions to paint portraits of the Maharajahs and some Parsis during visits to a number of princely states and other cities in India. The first 55 pages cover the voyage from England to Bombay. The rest of the book is entirely on India. She travelled virtually all over India and there are references to the Maharajas of Coochbehar, Mysore, Vizianagaram, Jaipur Jodhpur, Nizam of Hyderabad, Dholpore, Dumraon, Patiala, Kolhapur, Bhavnagar, Rajkot, Maharajah Tagore, among others.
