Nur Jahan, holding a portrait of Emperor Jahangir, c. 1627. Creator: Bishandas (Indian)
Nur Jahan, holding a portrait of Emperor Jahangir, c. 1627. The empress Nur Jahan, Jahangirs favorite wife, exercised influence in affairs of state. By all accounts, including those of Jahangir himself and European visitors to the Mughal court, she was a remarkable and brilliantly capable woman. This painting may have been made shortly after the death of Jahangir. He appears aged in his portrait, and it echoes a similar composition from another painting in which Jahangir holds a painted portrait of his deceased father, Akbar

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases Nur Jahan, the empress and favorite wife of Emperor Jahangir, holding a portrait of her late husband. Created by Bishandas in 1627, this painting beautifully captures the influence Nur Jahan wielded in the affairs of state during her time at the Mughal court in Northern India. Renowned for her remarkable intelligence and capabilities, Nur Jahan left an indelible mark on history. Both Jahangir himself and European visitors to the court were mesmerized by her brilliance. This particular artwork is believed to have been made shortly after Jahangir's passing as he appears aged in his portrait. Interestingly, this composition echoes another painting where Jahangir holds a painted portrait of his deceased father, Akbar. The use of opaque watercolor and gold on paper adds depth and richness to the image. Preserved meticulously by Heritage Art/Heritage Images, this print offers a glimpse into one of India's most fascinating historical periods. It serves as a testament to Nur Jahan's power and influence during an era when women rarely held such positions. As we admire this piece from The Cleveland Museum of Art collection, we are reminded that behind every great man lies an equally extraordinary woman who shapes destinies with grace and intellect.
