Image description

A month after Emperor Jahangir awarded his son the title Shah-Jahan (‘King of the World’) in recognition of his military triumph in the Deccan, he gave him a jewel worn his grandfather Akbar that Jahangir had worn throughout his reign as a good luck charm. Here, the jewel, set into a plumed turban ornament, symbolising the future transmission of power of Jahangir to Shah-Jahan. The presence of Bijapuri courtiers at the bottom right of the scene reference Shah-Jahan’s recent victory.
