About this artwork

This early Mughal portrait is thought to show Prince Danyal, the youngest son of the emperor Akbar and said to be his favourite. He is shown in his mid-teens, wearing an archer's thumb ring and holding a white flower, a nod to his epithet, Nosegay of Fortune's Spring. Prayer beads are in his right hand, while a sword, knife and dagger hang from his sash. Danyal later served his father as a military officer, leading contingents to the Deccan plateau. The work was painted around 1580–90 in gum tempera and gold on paper.

On your wall: Its single flower and fine, jewel-like detail suit a study, a reading corner or a calm sitting room, especially alongside other floral or botanical pieces.
