This painting shows a battle scene with soldiers on horseback and foot. Bright colors pop against a light backdrop. Two artists worked on it: Miskina planned the design, while Banwali Khord painted the details. It comes from the Akbarnama, a book about Mughal ruler Akbar’s life. This fight in 1573 helped Mughals take Gujarat. The clash mixes Persian and Indian styles. Look up Miskina next.
