About Emperor Shah Jahan Watching A Wrestling Match c1750 Mir Kalan Khan Mughal Miniature Art Indian Painting
The painting is attributed on stylistic grounds to the master artist Mir Kalan Khan, who began his career in Delhi working under the Mughal emperor Muhammad Shah (r. 1719-48) and sometime around 1750 migrated to the court of Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh. Due to the political impotency of the Mughal empire in the 18th century and the extensive exodus of artists and literary luminaries to the provincial courts, the Lucknow court surpassed their titular Mughal overlords in the grandeur and refinement of its art and cultural glories.
