Fascinating!
The #WhatsAppUniversity (used in #India to describe people's educational background who peddle fake news or give incredible information) does throw up such interesting #Memes which enrich my day.
Like this one on the #Mughal ruler #Babur
Hats off to the person who does such mind blowing research.

A small, gem-like and exquisite c1617-18 CE #IndianMiniaturePainting of the infant #Mughal prince Shah Shuja by one of the greatest Mughal #Artists, Abu'l Hasan, from the Edith & Cary Welch collection sold by Sothebys for £585,000.
Single-figure portraits of infant princes are a relative rarity in Mughal paintings.

c1710 CE #Rajput #IndianMiniaturePainting from #Udaipur #Mewar #Rajasthan of the #Mughal ruler Shah Alam Bahadur, also known as Bahadur Shah 1, (who ruled from #Delhi during 1707-12) with four of his sons, sold by Sotheby's in June 2021 for £60,000.
A soldier to the core, he spent only FOUR days in palaces, rest in tents, fighting!
Now, that is something for the ruler of #India

Now, it is #LunchTime and here I am, with my ordinary 'Stainless Steel' Spoon.
Today, as I concentrate more on food utensils, the more I become envious of the #Mughals
Now, this is the #Spoon on #NurJahan wife of #Mughal ruler #Jahangir
Made of Gold inlaid with Diamonds & Rubies, this c1600 AD object was in the collection of Museum of Islamic Arts #Qatar
It is believed that #MuseumOfIslamicArts have sold it off, to an unknown buyer. -
