More about this artwork

In the painting, a man stands prominently, dressed in an intricately patterned and ornamented robe. He wears a turban and holds a rifle with one hand, resting it against the ground, while the other hand holds the barrel loosely. He stands beside a column of a richly decorated palace interior, characterized by ornate carvings and Islamic architectural features. The walls around him display exquisite tile work in hues of blue, white, and browns, and an ornamental brass pot sits to his right on the tiled floor, adding to the richness of the setting. His posture is upright and his expression contemplative, suggesting a mix of authority and pensiveness.
