Jahangir Embracing Shah Abbas Painting | Handmade Mughal Miniature Reproduction

This painting reproduces one of the most celebrated works in Mughal art history — "Jahangir Embracing Shah Abbas," originally painted around 1618 by the master artist Abu'l Hasan for Emperor Jahangir's imperial court. The composition is deeply symbolic: Jahangir and the Persian ruler Shah Abbas I stand embracing atop a globe, a lion and lamb resting peacefully at their feet, while a radiant sun halo — carried by cherubs in a fusion of Persian, Indian, and European artistic styles — glows behind them. In reality, the two rulers never met; the painting was Jahangir's imagined assertion of dominance during a period of tension between the Mughal and Safavid empires over the Kandahar region. Today, the original resides in the Smithsonian's Freer Gallery of Art. Our hand-painted reproduction, rendered on aged paper, brings this landmark piece of Mughal storytelling and artistic ambition into a collectible miniature format.
