nov 16, 1620 - Jahangir Preferring a Sufi Shaikh to Kings.
Description:
Watercolor, gold and ink on paper
Bichitr
Shows Jahangir greeting kings of various ethnic groups. A Sufi is standing on top of an Ottoman Sultan who is standing on top of King James I of England, and last in line is Bichitr, the artist himself.
Meant to show how Jahangir spiritually leans to the religious man rather than the kings of other ethnicities.
