EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the regal beauty of Zenat Mahal, also known as Begum or Queen of Delhi, during the 19th century. Believed to be a portrait of Zeenat Mahal, the wife of Bahadur Shah Zafar - the last Mughal Emperor, this image exudes elegance and grace. Dressed in a traditional Indian sari, Zenat Mahal's attire reflects her status as a queen. The intricate details of her costume highlight the rich cultural heritage of India. Adorned with exquisite jewelry including earrings and a necklace embellished with pearls, she epitomizes royal splendor. The engraving captures Zenat Mahal's dignified presence as she gazes into the distance. Her serene expression hints at both strength and vulnerability that comes with being a female monarch in a patriarchal society. This historical artifact offers us an invaluable glimpse into the lives of women during that era in India. It serves as a reminder of their significant contributions to society despite facing numerous challenges. Preserved by The Print Collector, this monochrome print transports us back to 19th-century Hindoostan (India). It immortalizes not only Queen Zeenat Mahal but also represents an important part of our collective heritage. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us pay homage to Queen Zeenat Mahal for her role in shaping history and for embodying timeless beauty through her traditional dress and majestic jewelry.
