TWW Comment

Procession in front of a panoramic view Looking across the Yamuna river towards Dehli. View centred on the Red Fort or Lal Qila. The composition of the procession is very similar to a panorama in the British Library (f. 59v-A) depicting the durbar procession of Akbar II, Emperor of Delhi, 1806-37, probably on the occasion of the Id or after Ramadan. Made around 1815 by an unknown artist from Delhi (gouache, 16 cm x 239 cm).
