This Mughal miniature, dating to the early eleventh century AH / seventeenth CE, depicts the Virgin and Child after a European example. Its composition and use of grisaille are analogous to an image of the Virgin and Child depicted by the Mughal artist Manohar (Institut NĂ©erlandis, Paris), which has been compared to works by the sixteenth-century Flemish artist Hieronymus Wierix. The painted borders probably date to the late thirteenth century AH / nineteenth CE.
