Painting Date: 1698-1699 (made) Artist/Maker: Ghulaman (painted by) Materials and Techniques: Opaque watercolour and gold on paper Museum number: IM.234-1921 Gallery location: South Asia, room 41, case V Download image Summary More information Download PDF version The portrait of the Mughal emperor 'Alamgir is dated 1110 AH/1698-99, and therefore depicts him towards the end of his life. He is dressed entirely in white with no jewellery, in keeping with the austerity that characterised his personality in later years. He sits with hunched shoulders and his hands raised as if in prayer. Two attends follow him, bearing a parasol and an aftabgir, or sunshade, both emblems of royalty. The dated Persian inscription in gold at the top of the painting gives the emperor's titles and the name of the artist, Ghulaman. |
