Description
العربية: أورنكزيب في مجلسه، يُرجَّح أنَّ الرسم للمُصوَِّر المغولي بچتر؛ يظهر شايسته خان واقفًا خلف الشاهزاده مُعظَّم. مجموعة خاصَّة. وُصفت هذه المُنمنمة من طرف ستيوارت كاري ولش فقال: «على الرغم من تقشفه لاحقًا، وانقلابه على الموسيقى والرقص والرسم، فقد رُسمت بعض أفضل اللوحات المغوليَّة لأورنكزيب عالمكير. ولعلَّ الرسَّامين أدركوا أنه قد يغلق الورش وبالتالي تفوقوا على أنفسهم دون أن يطلب. ولسببٍ ما، فإنَّ جودة هذا الدربار مُذهلة. حيث يمسك السُلطان المهيب بصقر، بينما يجلس على عرش ذهبي أنيق غير متكلف تحت مظلة مُزينة بطُيُور الجنَّة. ويقف ابنه الثالث، مُحمَّد أعظم، الذي ولد سنة 1653، في مواجهته، ويبدو صبيانيًا وحيويًا للغاية على النقيض من المظهر الرسمي للآخرين. والشخصية البارزة ذات اللحية السوداء على يساره هي شايسته خان، ابن آصف خان شقيق نورجهان. وربما تكون هذه المُنمنمة قد رسمت لألبوم، ولعلَّها من صنع بچتر».
English: Aurangzeb holds court, as painted by (perhaps) Bichitr; Shaistah Khan stands behind Prince Muhammad Azam. Private collection. Following description from Imperial Mughal Painting, by Stuart Cary Welch (New York: George Braziller, 1978), pp. 112-13. "In spite of his later austerity, which turned him against music, dance, and painting, a few of the best Mughal paintings were made for [Aurangzeb] "Alamgir. Perhaps the painters realized that he might close the workshops and therefore exceeded themselves in his behalf. For whatever reason, this darbar is of stunning quality. The awesomely dignified emperor holds a hawk, while seated on an elegantly unpretentious gold throne beneath a canopy adorned with birds of paradise. His third son, Muhammad A`zam, who was born in 1653, stands facing him, looking very boyish and lively in contrast to the formality of the others. The black-bearded dignitary to his left is Shaisteh Khan, son of Nur Jahan"s brother "Asaf Khan. Probably painted for an album, this miniature might be by Bichitr."
