Attributed to the master painter Bichitr, who served in the imperial workshops of the Mughal court, the work demonstrates the technical precision associated with the period. The Raja is shown in profile, a standard convention for royal portraiture, standing against a plain, muted background that draws focus to his attire and the falcon perched upon his gloved hand.\n\nThe figure wears a jama, a traditional long coat, rendered with fine detail in the fabric patterns and the translucent quality of the textile. His waist is cinched with a patka, or sash, which holds a dagger, a common accessory for nobility of the era. The falcon, a symbol of status and the hunt, is captured with careful attention to its plumage and posture. The artist employs a refined colour palette, balancing the soft tones of the clothing with the subtle gold accents found in the border and the Raja's turban.\n\nBichitr is recognised for his ability to balance realism with the formal requirements of courtly representation. The border of the painting features a repeating floral motif, a decorative element typical of the margins found in Mughal albums or muraqqa. The composition is balanced and static, reflecting the dignity expected of a ruler. This print captures the delicate brushwork and the muted, earthy tones of the original manuscript page, providing a clear view of the stylistic conventions of Mughal painting. The work remains a primary example of the portraiture traditions that flourished under the patronage of the Mughal emperors, where artists were tasked with documenting the appearance and status of regional allies and courtiers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bichitr","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58090703716687,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58090731176271,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58090731209039,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58090731241807,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58090731274575,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Portrait-of-Raja-Jagat-Singh-of-Nurpur_Poster_CompositorV1_1782778325076.jpg?v=1782778482","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/portrait-of-raja-jagat-singh-of-nurpur-bichitr","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
