Mubarak ud-Daula, Nawab of Murshidabad, in durbar with the British Resident, Sir John Hadley D'Oyly

This is one of a group of nine paintings. They depict a durbar (public reception) at the Murshidabad court, and various Hindu and Muslim festivals and religious scenes. A Murshidabad artist copied it, probably from an original oil painting by George Farington.
