About this work

This painting shows a man in a bright red turban and white robes, holding a small pink flower. His outfit has gold embroidery and a sword hanging at his side. The background is a plain green circle with a faint glow around his head. The writing at the bottom is in a script that looks like it might be Hindi or a related language. The artist’s careful attention to detail in the clothing and jewelry suggests this was made by hand with precision. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
