Summary

Description
English: Painting of Zorawar Singh Kahluria receiving the Gyalpo (Raja) and Gyalmo (Queen) of the Namgyal Dynasty of Ladakh. The King and Queen of Ladakh sitting with folded hands in front of Wazir Zorawar Singh Kahluria. The Namgyal Dynasty ruler depicted in this painting is surely Kunga Namgyal II (Kun‐dga'‐rnam‐rgyal, 1840–1842), who was the last Namgyal ruler. Zorawar Singh Kahluria can be seen smoking a hookah pipe. Dogs are visible in the foreground. Zorawar Singh Kahluria was a general of the Dogra Dynasty, whom at that time were vassals to the Sikh Empire (who were their suzerain). He led an invasion into Tibet but was driven back by the forces of the Qing Dynasty, in-turn driving back their invasion of Ladakh.
