A maharaja and his attendants hunting boar, gouache on paper, 14 x 22cm, framed and glazed. This splendid scene has all the animal elements that add so much to Indian miniatures of this type, the doubtful looking horses, wonderfully decorative costume of the maharana (of Mewar?) with his ornate jezail, and, most of all, the boar himself, eyeing up the scene and defying his hunters.
