This work, completed shortly before the high point of Mughal portraiture, shows the emperor Jahangir (r. 1605\u201327) praying. It was painted near the beginning of his reign and is paired with a portrait of his father Akbar, also in the Museum\u2019s collection. Although neutral tones dominate, Jahangir\u2019s jewelry and the sash around his waist are accented in red and blue. The underdrawing, especially visible at Jahangir\u2019s feet and legs, indicates that the artist departed from his original plan in the process of executing this portrait.
