About the Item
Emperor Jahangir depicted with his harem attendees aboard a pleasure cruise, the water filled with lotus blossoms; symbols of paradise itself.
Circa 1750. Gouache and ink with gold heightening on light weight cream laid paper, 8 x 6 inches (274 x 137 mm), the full sheet. Some scattered light surface soiling, along with age related toning and some handling creases, minor edge tears and losses, repairs (verso), and scattered inscriptions in ink and graphite. Extensive inscriptions in red and black ink on the verso and in the margins on the recto. The color is exceptionally fresh, rich, and saturated.
Mirza Nur-ud-Din Muhammad Salim (30 August 1569 – 28 October 1627), known by his imperial name Jahangir ("Conqueror of the World'), was the fourth Mughal Emperor, who ruled from 1605 until his death in 1627. He was the third and only surviving son of Akbar and his chief empress, Mariam-uz-Zamani, born to them in the year 1569. He was named after the Indian Sufi saint, Salim Chishti.

We see Empress Nur Jahan making an offering to a sage in his hut, as Emperor Jahangir looks on from a tree stand.
Nur Jahan was fond of hunting and often went on hunting tours with her husband and was known for her boldness in hunting ferocious tigers.
