Having fought and survived in the D-Day invasions of Normandy he successfully turned his hand to business, film production and art collecting. Neighbours to the Hollywood elite, Daniel and his wife Nathalie were close friends with Frank and Barbara Sinatra regularly dining out and golfing together. Nathalie and Barabara often championed the same charities, making a real difference to impoverished Jewish communities.Daniel's real passion, however, was for racehorses, regularly collaborating with successful businesspeople to purchase the very best. Seattle Dancer was perhaps his most famous horse bought for a staggering $13.1m in 1985. Daniel’s love for horses was also very much evident in his art collection. Equestrian portraits in Indian miniature paintings were always popular subjects for Indian artists working at the royal courts in India over the centuries. The rulers of the capital Jodhpur and surrounding thikanas in Marwar, an area in western Rajasthan bordering the Thar desert, eagerly commissioned local artists to depict processions and hunting scenes reflecting their powerful positions at court and the importance of their steeds. The artists were also given commissions from the nearby kingdom of Udaipur. For further discussion on Marwar painting and comparisons with equestrian portraits see: R. Crill, Marwar Painting: A History of the Marwar Style, Mumbai, 1999, figs. 93, 95,104,105 and 106.

He was a hugely competent artist valued at the Mewar court for his hunting and equestrian scenes, several of which are in the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, Australia. There is also a charming portrait of this court artist with possibly his two young sons by the British artist William Carpenter, circa 1851 bearing the inscription 'Tara Chund, court painter, Udaipur' in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.For further discussion, see:L.
