This Mughal miniature, painted by Hashim, depicts Jadun Rai Deccani, a nobleman and possibly a musician, standing against a verdant background. The painting is framed by a decorative border featuring intricate floral patterns, typical of the Shah Jahan Album, a collection of portraits created during the reign of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. The inclusion of gold leaf adds a touch of grandeur to this exquisite portrait, illustrating the skill of the artist and the splendor of Mughal court life.
