India: Scene from the Baburnama. Zahir ud-din Muhammad Babur (1483-1531) the first Mughal Emperor, confronts his enemies

Baburnama (Chagatai/Persian: ???? ????;´, literally: 'Book of Babur' or 'Letters of Babur'; alternatively known as Tuzk-e Babri) is the name given to the memoirs of ?ahir ud-Din Mu?ammad Babur (1483-1530), founder of the Mughal Empire and a great-great-great-grandson of Timur. It is an autobiographical work, originally written in the Chagatai language, known to Babur as 'Turki' (meaning Turkic), the spoken language of the Andijan-Timurids. Because of Babur's cultural origin, his prose is highly Persianized in its sentence structure, morphology, and vocabulary, and also contains many phrases and smaller poems in Persian. During Emperor Akbar's reign, the work was completely translated to Persian by a Mughal courtier, Abdul Rahim, in AH 998 (1589-90 CE). This painting depicts the Mughal emperor Babur with his brave companions confronting their enemies in the mountains of Kharabuk and Pashamun. The text refers to Babur and his few men deciding to charge the enemy.
