The painting of a turkey-cock, Plate LXII., is possibly another work by Mansur. It also bears Jahangir's seal, and its history is given by Jahangir himself in the diary of the seventh year of his reign, as recorded in the "Wakiat-i-Jahangiri." Mukarrab Khan, who had been sent on a mission to Goa, brought back several rarities he had purchased for the Emperor.
