Notes
This three-quarter portrait of Ibrahim Adil Shah at the age of approximately 19 years is an original piece that is unique in every respect. Portrait painting was in its infancy in Mughal India at that time and such monumental depiction from the Deccan must undoubtedly be attributed to the direct influence of European printed models.
