The leaf is from the same album as the preceding lot. The unidentified noble portrayed is a Lucknow nawab from the reign of Muhammad Shah or later. He bears some ressemblance to Dauran Khan, one of Muhammad Shah's ministers, but that noble died in 1738 and the style of the portrait is of a slightly later date.
(For portraits of Dauran Khan see: A la Cour du Grand Moghol, exhibition catalogue Paris 1986, no.44 and Coomaraswamy, A.K.: Catalogue of the Indian Collection, Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Harvard 1930, pl.LXIII, p.66)
