Popis: This paper studies a collection of photographs that document a famine relief effort organized by the sixth Nizam of Hyderabad (India). Made by the firm of Raja Deen Dayal and Sons and assembled in an album now preserved in the Andhra Pradesh State Archives, the photographs reveal much about the relationship between photography, modernity and statecraft in late nineteenth-century princely India.
