Sourced Overview Evidence

In the portrait, the raja is depicted clad in a <em>gheradar jama</em> tied with a short-length <em>pataka</em>, a feature of Jahangir-era fashion. He stands confidently against a monochromatic fern green backdrop, with his left hand supporting his sword in a mauve sheath while his right hand reaches toward his dagger securely tucked in his belt.
