This miniature portrait by Adrianus Canter Visscher depicts Sja Selim, a Mughal noble, in profile, holding a flower. The work is characterized by its delicate details, such as the intricate patterns on the noble's clothing and the delicate brushwork used to render the facial features. The artist's use of vibrant colors and the subtle halo effect around the figure add to the portrait's sense of grandeur and authority. This work is a testament to the artistic skill and cultural exchange between Europe and the Mughal Empire during the 17th and 18th centuries.
