Presenting a stunningly realistic handmade portrait representation of a Mughal Nobleman.

Portrait paintings of court officials collected in albums were a trademark of Mughal court painting, a tradition started by the emperor Akbar (r. 1556-1605) and practiced by his son Jahangir (r. 1605-1627) and grandson Shah Jahan's (r. 1627-1658) courts as well. This artwork is a modern representation of a folio that is thus likely to date from the period of Jahangir's reign and probably depicts a contemporary court official.

The margins are also the fine part of this composition as each flower is outlined with sparkling gold illumination and rendered with the utmost care.

The art is soaked in the elegance and richness that displays the nobleman with magnificent virtues and fanciful perfection.

This wonderful traditional ethnic Indian Mughal portrait artwork will look great when framed and is bound to spruce up your decor and make a great addition to your Indian art collection. Acquire it today before it is gone. Only one is stock.

NOTE: Please note the light and almost unnoticeable fold on the middle left hand side of the artwork.
