The Koh-i-noor, or"mountain of light," diamond, set in the Maltese Cross at the front of the crown made for Britain's late Queen Mother Elizabeth, is seen on her coffin, along with her personal standard, a wreath and a note from her daughter, Queen Elizabeth II, on April 5, 2002.
As we reached the South Asian collection in the V&A Museum I was instantly drawn to Tipu Sultan’s possessions. The notoriously brave and stubborn king of Mysore refused to bow down to the British and died in the Fourth Anglo-Mysore war protecting his kingdom. We saw it all: his intricate silken robes and slippers, his sword that he refused to surrender, his portrait that he probably commissioned to immortalize his good side. We finally made it to the museum’s pride and joy — Tipu’s.
When I heard about Queen Elizabeth II’s passing, some of those uncomfortable feelings returned. The London Bridge was down. An era had ended.
