¹ The Mogul miniaturists did occasionally paint portraits on a scale even larger than the enlargement here given. The Art Gallery formerly possessed a very fine example, a portrait of Dara Shikoh, about half life-size. This was transferred to the Victoria Memorial collection at Lord Curzon's request, where it is now, I am glad to say, valued so highly that the Trustees considered it unsafe to allow me to reproduce it.
