Raja Hari Dev was Raja of Jammu between 1650 and 1688.
Versions of the two-toned mauve carpet on which the raja seats appear in a number of contemporary paintings from Basohli. For instance on the portrait of Raja Kirpal Pal (r.1685-90) in the collection of Baron and Baroness Bachofen von Echt, or on a painting depicting Prince Medini Pal of Basohli, dated 1730 in the Soustiel Collection. A portrait of Sangram Pal in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, also shows a similar carpet although with a deeper rust colour. For two Mankot portraits of Hari Dev, see W. G. Archer, Indian Paintings of the Punjab Hills, 1973, vol. I, p. 373, nos. 5 and 6; vol. II, p. 285, nos. 5 and 6.
