He stands on a dark green ground which rises in a lighter shade to a high horizon where it melds with the blue brush strokes of a suggested sky.\r\nThe man has a yellow halo with an outer band of gold denoting his royal birth. He wears a purple and gold turban with a <i>sarpech</i> and jewel attached to the front.  He also wears ropes of pearls with gem-stone pendants across his chest and pearl bracelets. He is dressed in a striped purple and gold fur-trimmed coat with three-quarter length sleeves over a bright red <i>jama</i>.  He has a gold <i>patka</i> and yellow boots decorated with gold foliated designs. The white hilt of a dagger is seen protruding from his <i>patka</i> at his waist and the end of  a purple-coloured sword sheath is visible sticking out behind him.  \r\n      The painting is framed with plain strips of collaged buff-coloured paper on a ivory-coloured ground which is decorated with a row of alternate poppies and lilies without the gold outlines and detailing seen on the borders of other pages in the album.  The page is edged with buff-coloured strips of paper with an additional beige-coloured strip on the right hand side to act as a gutter for the album binding. The edges of the page have been gilded.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Unknown","id":"A1848"},"association":{"text":"","id":""},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"opaque watercolour","id":"x35013"},{"text":"paint","id":"AAT15029"},{"text":"paper","id":"AAT14109"}],"techniques":[{"text":"painted","id":"x30138"},{"text":"collaged","id":"AAT138699"},{"text":"painted","id":"AAT54216"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Painted in opaque watercolour on paper","categories":[{"text":"Paintings","id":"THES48917"},{"text":"Bonita Trust Indian Paintings Cataloguing Project","id":"THES263148"}],"styles":[{"text":"Mughal","id":"AAT18939"}],"collectionCode":{"text":"SSEA","id":"THES48598"},"images":["2006BL1628","2006AT3419"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"004","id":"THES406584"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Painting","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Mughal Empire","id":"THES262021"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"17th century or 18th century","earliest":"1600-01-01","latest":"1800-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Gift of Mr. John Goelet","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"17","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"central painting","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"8.6","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"central painting","note":""},{"dimension":"Height","value":"35.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"page","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"23.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"page","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"This miniature painting is part of the Small Clive Album of Indian miniatures which is thought to have been given by Shuja ud-Daula, the Nawab of Avadh, to Lord Clive during his last visit to India in 1765-67.
