專家說明


This composition of the Mughal Emperor Akbar Shah II seems to have been a popular subject for Company School artists in Delhi. An almost identical painting from the collection of Lord Amherst is in the Victoria & Albert Museum (IS.59-1964) and was likely made during Amhert’s visit to the Delhi in 1827. Another similar to a painting of the procession of Akbar Shah II sold in Maharajas & Mughal Magnificence, Christie’s New York, 19 June 2019, lot 146.
