Indian Painting under the Mughals, A.D. 1550 to A.D. 1750 c18.21

¹ As an instance of the unreliability of the names on these paintings, one picture in the Bankipur *Timūrnāma* bears the name of Bihzad. It has no resemblance to the work of this painter. At all times the Persian master’s name was one to conjure with, and we see it imposed on miniatures which could not by any stretch of the imagination have belonged even to his school. See Plate LI, on which his name has been clumsily inscribed by a recent hand. Nothing could be more remote than the style of this painting from that of Bihzad.
