DESCRIPTION

Nur-ud-din Muhammad Salim (Persian: نورالدین محمد سلیم), known by his imperial name, Jahangir (Persian: جهانگیر) (31 August 1569 – 28 October 1627), was the fourth Mughal Emperor, who ruled from 1605 until his death in 1627. His imperial name (in Persian) means 'conqueror of the world', 'world-conqueror' or 'world-seizer' (Jahan: world; gir: the root of the Persian verb gereftan: to seize, to grab). The fictional tale of his relationship with the Mughal courtesan, Anarkali, has been widely adapted into the Literature, Art and Cinema of India.

MUGHAL IMAGES

The Mughal Images immediately took a much greater interest in realistic portraiture than was typical of Persian miniatures. Animals and plants were the main subject of many miniatures for albums and were more realistically depicted. To upload your images click here.
