About Indian Art Maharatta Light Horseman Miniature Painting
Maratha (or Mahratta) Army refers to the land-based armed forces of the Maratha Kingdom of India, which existed from the late 17th to the early 19th centuries in India. The formation, rise, and decline of the armies of the Maratha Kingdom can be broadly divided into two eras. Chhatrapati Shivaji, the founder of Maratha polity, raised a small yet effective land army. For better administration, Shivaji abolished the land-grants or jagirs for military officers and made a cash payment. During the 17th century, the Maratha Army was small in terms of numbers when compared to the Mughals, numbering some 100,000. Back then, it consisted of mainly cavalry and infantry.
