Description
Flight of Sultan Bahadur During Humayun's Campaign in Gujarat, 1535, Folio from an Akbarnama (History of Akbar). Pakistan, Lahore, Mughal.
"This folio depicts the conquest and burning of the Fort of Cambay, Gujarat in 1535 by Emperor Humayun (r. 1530-1540 and 1555-1556). Humayun is the commanding figure on a caparisoned horse in lower right center of the painting. He is identifiable by his feather plume turban ornament (jigha) and wears golden chain mail armor. Humayun’s army—consisting of foot soldiers, warriors on horses and elephants, and drum beaters on camels—is breaching the gateway to the fort. In the upper right center, Sultan Bahadur Shah of the Gujarat Sultanate (r. 1526-1535 and 1536-1537) is escaping the assault on horseback while the distraught occupants of the fort flee in terror and attempt to extinguish the flames with water from hide bags and pots."
