One attendant offers refreshments while another gently fans the couple, evoking the refined etiquette and luxury of Mughal court life. Executed in gouache on paper using traditional natural pigments — including vegetable dyes and finely ground mineral colours — the composition displays jewel-like tones, delicate facial modelling, and intricate textile patterns. The scene is enclosed within a richly decorated gilt floral border, characteristic of late Mughal atelier work. Likely dating to the 18th or early 19th century. Condition appears very good with strong colour retention and minor age-related wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 5.0pt 0cm .0001pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: _Hlk167283852;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-bookmark: _Hlk165977601;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 8.0pt; font-family: 'Georgia',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #44546a; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eDimensions: 12 x 7.5 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-hyphenate: auto; background: white; mso-vertical-align-alt: auto; margin: 5.0pt 0cm .0001pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 8.5pt; font-family: 'Georgia',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003eMost objects sold in our gallery are antiques, vintage or used; therefore, they will show signs of being antique, vintage or used.

Often used to illustrate manuscripts and art books, these paintings are precise despite their diminutive dimensions, with some lines painted using brushes composed of a single hair. For example, the miniature \"Prince with a Falcon\" (1600–05) is only roughly 6 inches tall and 3 inches wide but manages to capture every feather of the bird, the wisps of the prince’s hair, and a menagerie of fluttering birds and hunting lions on his tunic. These miniatures prioritise colour and intricate detail over shading and realistic perspective, resulting in figures that appear static and two-dimensional.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003eMughal miniature painting, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Leans Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56219134230876,"sku":"Miniature painting, Indian, on paper","price":375.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/8945\/2380\/files\/20171116-DSC_0035_2_-3_36781edf-3767-4d37-8597-0515527bc055.jpg?v=1771603956","url":"https:\/\/leansgallery.com\/products\/miniature-painting-indian-prince-with-princess-and-consorts","provider":"Leans Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
