|ProvenanceBonhams, Islamic and Indian Art, 5th April 2011, Lot 293This depiction of Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh guru, is a typical depiction of the subject: he is often depicted in a princely fashion, dressed in fine robes and jewels atop a horse and with a halo. He was a fine warrior and is credited with founding the Khalsa and introducing the "Five Ks" of Sikhism. In this depiction, with the unusual addition of the inset scene in the upper left corner depicting Guru Nanak, the first and last of the ten Sikh Gurus are simultaneously recalled.
