Painting Description
"Thappatully Residence of Maharajah Jung Bahadoor 1852-60" is a historical account authored by Dr. H.A. Oldfield, which meticulously documents the life and times of Maharajah Jung Bahadur Rana of Nepal during the years 1852 to 1860. Dr. Henry Ambrose Oldfield, a British medical doctor and author, served as the personal physician to the British Residency in Kathmandu, Nepal, during the mid-19th century, a position that granted him unprecedented access to the Nepalese royal court and its affairs. His work, therefore, emerges from firsthand observations and experiences, offering a unique insight into the political, social, and cultural dimensions of Nepal under the rule of one of its most influential and transformative leaders, Jung Bahadur Rana.
Jung Bahadur Rana, who established the Rana dynasty that effectively ruled Nepal from 1846 until 1951, is a pivotal figure in Nepalese history. His reign was marked by significant reforms, including the modernization of the army, the introduction of new legal and administrative systems, and the initiation of Nepal's first diplomatic relations with Western nations. Dr. Oldfield's account of his residence, "Thappatully," not only sheds light on the personal life of Maharajah Jung Bahadur but also provides a broader understanding of the socio-political changes occurring in Nepal during this period.
The significance of Dr. Oldfield's work lies in its detailed portrayal of the internal workings of the Nepalese royal court and its interactions with the British Residency, offering scholars and historians a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of Nepalese-British relations in the 19th century. Through "Thappatully Residence of Maharajah Jung Bahadoor 1852-60," readers gain an intimate glimpse into the life of a monarch who played a crucial role in shaping the destiny of Nepal, making it an indispensable addition to the historiography of South Asia.
