Sultan Umar Shaikh Mirza is a 1890 paint by Unknown, a Impressionism work, depicting Made for Prince Salim, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
The painting depicts a man sitting on a gold-framed chair, adorned with a red and white striped turban and a dark blue robe over an orange shirt. He is positioned in front of a white umbrella, which is attached to the back of the chair. The background features a blue sky with white clouds. The man's attire and the ornate chair suggest a regal or noble setting. The use of vibrant colors and detailed patterns adds to the overall sense of luxury and refinement. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artists who specialized in portraits of royalty and nobility, such as those found in the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The painting is an opaque watercolor and gold on paper portrait of Sultan Umar Shaikh Mirza, depicted seated on a golden throne and dressed in blue and orange garments, set against a desert landscape.
