Turning to animals, we find in the Johnson Collection (vol. iii, fol. 1) a lifelike portrait of Dilpasand, or 'Heart's Delight', a favourite charger of Dārā Shukoh, by an artist named Manohar (Plate CXXV). An equestrian portrait of the same prince mounted on another charger is also notable (ibid., vol. iv, fol. 9) and of unusually large size, about 11 inches by 9.
