Unveiling The Unseen

Almarhum Sultan Ismail Nasiruddin Shah, Malaysia’s fourth Yang di-Pertuan Agong (1965), was an accomplished photographer during the global modernist era, having only taken up photography at the age of 16 in 1923. The exhibition will put forth the retrieved negatives from Sultan Ismail’s archive that was inherited by his grandson Raja Ihsan Shah. Look forward to hand-coloured prints as well as monochrome and coloured photographs, some of which were taken during Sultan Ismail’s state visit as Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
