Volume xlii of the Johnson collection, like volume xxxiv, is of special interest as containing a large number of pictures signed by Udūt Singh, Gobind Singh, Mohan Singh, and Ghulām Razā. Four of these, namely, three (Nos. 19, 22, 25) by Udūt Singh, and one (No. 12) by Ghulām Razā, are indecent, the only pictures of the Indo-Persian and Hindu schools, among the hundreds examined by me, to which such a reproach can be applied. Artistically, the twelve contributions by Ghulām Razā are the best. A portrait by him is on fol. 30 of volume lxiv of the same collection.
