Employing rare archival data, back-room surveys and exhaustive research, this text discusses how Sayajirao Gaekwad III not only patronised the local arts of Baroda but also mediated a cross-cultural dialogue between the European and indigenous art techniques. It also presents a rarely documented aspect of Sayajirao - as the lender of the royal collection to regional and international exhibitions and a global tastemaker.
