Emperor Jahangir (1605-1627) standing on a globe resting on a ram, upheld by a fish. He shoots at a head stuck on a spear, with bow and arrow. In the clouds above, two winged cherubs hold an arrow and a staff; eight circular compartments are arranged round the Emperor, each enclosing the seated figure of one of his ancestors. Starting at the top and continuing on to the left, they are 1) Amir Timur Sahib Qiran (1336-1405), 2) Miran Shah Mirga (1367-1408), 3) Sultan Muhammed Mirza (died ca. 1441), 4) Sultan Abu Said Mirza (1427-1469), 5) Umar Sheikh Mirza (1456-94), father of the first Mughal emperor of India, Babar. Drawing, in Indian ink on paper, touches of watercolour, pricked for use as a pinhole stencil. IM. 284-1914.
