India: Twin miniature paintings of courtiers from the reign of Mughal Emperor Jahangir (r.1605-1627).

Commissioned by Nuruddin Muhammad Jahangir, fourth Mughal emperor of Hindustan in Northern India, ca. 1620. These two courtiers were awarded prestigious titles for their valour and military success in the Mughal army. They are garbed in sumptuous clothing, as though standing at court in front of the emperor. On the left, Sundar Das received the title Raja Bikramajit, 'which among the Hindus is the highest'; he offers a gemstone between thumb and forefinger to curry the emperor’s favour. Maharaja Bhim Kunwar stands at right, equally well dressed: his richly embroidered pants and sash were gifts from the emperor, seeking to keep him in service.
