Catalogue Note
The courtier stands prepared for battle, his eyes acutely looking forward while holding a long sharp spear and round black shield. Wearing a white muslin jama over a mauve payjama and a gold pagri (cap) with a sheathed sword and small dagger tucked into his crimson and gold patka (sash). A glimpse of dark flower-strewn landscape and a crisply painted green background rising into a cloudy blue streaked sky.
