File:Shah Abbas II And A Minister, I'timad Al-Daulah, Seated In Discussion. Probably Delhi, After Safavid Persian Originals, 19th Century.jpg
Gouache and gold on paper, nasta'liq identifying inscriptions on painted surface, inscribed verso Shaw Abbas King of Persia and his Minister Jetimad ud Daula, and the same information on a separate small piece of paper 193 x 270 mm.
The nasta'liq inscriptions read: 'Portrait of Shah 'Abbas' and 'Portrait of I'timad al-Dawla.' The depiction of the Shah is perhaps based on the scene in which he receives an Uzbek ambassador in a mural in the palace of the Chihil Sutun.Original publication: 19th-century
