EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a significant moment in history as Akbar, the great Mughal Emperor, hands a jeweled feather to his son Jahangir. Created by an Indian School artist in the 19th century, this exquisite piece of art showcases opaque watercolor and gold on paper. Akbar's imperial name was Nur-ud-din Mohammad Salim, while Jahangir is famously known as his successor and the fourth Mughal Emperor. The image measures 20.5 x 10.4 cm and currently resides at the San Diego Museum of Art in the USA as part of the Edwin Binney 3rd Collection. This portrait not only symbolizes a father passing down power to his son but also represents dynastic succession within the Mughal Empire. It highlights their roles as rulers and emperors during that era in South Asia. The presence of a jeweled feather adds an element of grandeur to this artwork, emphasizing wealth and opulence associated with these powerful figures. The intricate details captured by the Indian artist showcase their importance within society. As we admire this stunning portrayal, it serves as a reminder of India's rich cultural heritage and its historical significance during Akbar's reign. This photograph provides us with a glimpse into one aspect of Mughal dynasty rule - fathers grooming their sons for leadership positions while upholding tradition and preserving their legacy for future generations to come.
