    Indo-persian artistry. An attractive album leaf that demonstrates the Indo-Persian artistic style of the 19th century in India. The colour palette and style of border illumination are typical of North Indian manuscript production, however the painting itself is almost certainly by a Persian artist.

    Single folio, illuminated miniature on paper, in gouache and opaque colours heightened in gilt, depicting a battle scene with men on horseback, likely a scene from the Qur'an, total leaf 180 x 255 mm (miniature painting 70 x 140 mm); image framed within polychrome border formed of multiple cartouches of floral designs, mounted to card and set within marbled paper frame, some light finger soiling and a little cockled and closed tears/creases repaired.
