Through their beautiful and evocative work, reproduced here in 280 illustrations, 100 in luminous color, the author analyzes the daily life of the imperial court and the major stylistic influences that shaped Mughal art: the emperors' Persian heritage, the discovery of Western art, the elegance and aestheticism of the Nutgall court, the introduction of realistic portraiture during the seventeenth century, and the discovery of chiaroscuro.
