About the piece

This exquisite 17th-century Mughal painting, attributed to the artist Lal Chand, depicts Raja Bikramajit in a formal profile stance. Rendered with the meticulous precision characteristic of the period, the work highlights the subject's elegant attire and noble bearing. The striking turquoise backdrop provides a luminous setting that bridges the gap between historical mastery and contemporary decor appeal.
