{"product_id":"portrait-of-raja-bikramajit-lal-chand","title":"Portrait of Raja Bikramajit - Lal Chand","description":"\u003cp\u003eA refined seventeenth-century Mughal miniature portrait of Raja Bikramajit, featuring delicate floral borders and gold detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis exquisite miniature painting, attributed to the artist Lal Chand, depicts Raja Bikramajit in a formal standing pose. The work reflects the conventions of mid-seventeenth-century Mughal court portraiture, where the subject is presented in profile against a solid, pale green background. The Raja wears a white jama, a yellow shawl draped over his shoulders, and a red turban, with a sword tucked into his sash. His posture is composed, conveying a sense of aristocratic dignity typical of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe portrait is framed by a wide, decorative border featuring various floral motifs. These botanical elements are rendered with precision, displaying a variety of blossoms and foliage that create a harmonious contrast with the central figure. The use of gold pigment throughout the border and the subject's attire adds a refined quality to the composition, characteristic of the high-status commissions produced for the Mughal elite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLal Chand demonstrates a mastery of line and colour, balancing the realism of the portrait with the stylised nature of the surrounding floral ornamentation. The painting is a fine example of the technical skill involved in Mughal manuscript illumination, where the artist worked with fine brushes to achieve such detail on a relatively small scale. The inclusion of Persian script at the base of the portrait identifies the sitter, providing historical context for the work. This piece offers a glimpse into the aesthetic preferences of the Mughal court, where portraiture served as a means of recording the appearance and status of nobility. The preservation of the paper and the pigments allows for a clear appreciation of the original colour palette, which remains balanced and clear after centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/sv\/products\/memory-of-a-voyage-rene-magritte\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMemory of a Voyage - René Magritte — René Magritte\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/sv\/products\/adoration-of-the-magi-jacopo-de-barbari\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAdoration of the Magi - Jacopo de' Barbari — Jacopo de' Barbari\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lal Chand","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58962594857295,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58963033948495,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58963033981263,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58963034014031,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58963034046799,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58963034079567,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58963034112335,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58963034145103,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58963034177871,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58963034210639,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58963034243407,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58963034276175,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Portrait-of-Raja-Bikramajit_Poster_CompositorV1_1790753313184.jpg?v=1790754094","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/sv\/products\/portrait-of-raja-bikramajit-lal-chand","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
