This Mughal illustration from a 16th-century manuscript depicting a scene from the Tarikh-i Alfi, a history of the world, depicts Al-Mu'tazz sending gifts to Abdulla ibn Abdulla. The image shows a procession of men on horseback carrying gifts, traveling through a landscape with rocky outcrops and trees. The rich colors and meticulous detail are characteristic of Mughal art, with a strong emphasis on narrative and historical accuracy. The use of Persian script at the top and bottom of the illustration adds another layer of meaning to the scene, further enhancing its cultural and historical significance.
