Emperor Farrukhsiyar is a 1840 paint by Unknown, a company_painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a man sitting on a fancy throne outdoors. He’s wearing a white outfit with gold trim, a red sash, and a bright orange turban. Above his head is a gold umbrella on a pole, and the throne has red cushions with gold patterns. The background is a pale blue sky with a distant hill. The man holds a long stick, maybe a scepter, and his face looks calm but serious. The edges of the painting have dark blue borders with gold designs, like a frame within a frame.
