Original Description
Bernard Boutet de Monvel’s Portrait de SAR le Maharajah d’Indore, dit Portrait à la Capenoire (1929) captivates with its striking blend of Art Deco precision and exotic grandeur. The portrait depicts the dashing Maharajah of Indore, Yashwant Rao Holkar II, clad in a sleek black cape and turban, his aristocratic poise heightened by geometric shadows and meticulous detailing. Boutet de Monvel’s crisp lines and muted yet dramatic palette—dominated by deep blacks, creams, and gold—evoke both modernity and timeless elegance. The painting emerged during the zenith of Art Deco, reflecting European fascination with Orientalism and luxury. Today, it stands as a testament to the artist’s mastery of portraiture and his ability to fuse Western modernist techniques with the mystique of Indian royalty, securing its place as a jewel of early 20th-century art.
For interiors, this portrait commands a tailored setting. Its bold geometry suits a minimalist or Art Deco-inspired space—think a streamlined office with ebony wood furnishings or a chic living room with metallic accents. Position it as a focal point above a console or mantel, ideally in a spot with warm, directional lighting to amplify its dramatic contrasts. The limited color palette pairs beautifully with navy, charcoal, or ochre walls, while gold frames or Deco-style mirrors can echo its gilded details. At 92 x 73 cm (typical of Boutet de Monvel’s commissions), it fits well in medium-sized rooms—large enough to impress but intimate enough for private enjoyment. Avoid cluttering the area; let its regal gravitas shine.
