A katar is tucked into his belt and his hands rest on a talwar. Above his head, a name inscribed in Persian nasta'liq identifies him as the raja Jagat Singh. Mounted as an album page on brown card with a wide orange border and fine turquoise and white borders. Gilded wooden frame. Size of painting: 16.1 x 9 cm; size of page: 27 x 21.6 cm Small stains, minor overpainting and accidents to the paper, wetness in the margins.
