Untitled is a 1592 paint by Husain Naqqash, a mughal_painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
You see Akbar on a red carpet. A man kneels before him, hands bound. Soldiers stand stiff behind them. This scene tells of Akbar’s 1572 win over Gujarat. The book it came from, the Akbarnama, was written to praise his rule. It’s part of a double-page spread. Look up the left side of this painting at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
