Half-length carte-de-visite of an unidentified Thakur from the 'Album of cartes de visite portraits of Indian rulers and notables' by Bourne and Shepherd, early 1870s. Thakur was used as a term of respect, lord, master etc but its exact meaning differed in different parts of India. In Rajasthan it was used for Rajput nobles.
