Mirza Sulayman is a 1592 paint by Bhagwan, a mughal_painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
A man in a white robe rides a white horse through rocky hills. Dust kicks up behind him. A few men on foot follow, carrying spears. This painting comes from a book about Akbar, the Mughal ruler. It shows a real escape in 1590 when Mirza Sulayman fled from his own family’s soldiers. If this style looks familiar, check out Bhagwan’s other work.
