Lucky ji or anyone, do you know if this illustration has any title. It seems as well to include Guru Hargobind ji (left bottom [7 o'clock} two swords (Miri and Piri?) are evident) and another Guru at (4 o'clock) (the third shown with a Halo) who also is noted for having a hawk and bow and arrows.
I go further to guess that it is Bhai Mardana in a topi characteristic of the Muslim Mirasi which is often seen worn by the minstrels in old european art and down through today as a hat associated with 'entertainers/Minstrels'. The musicians at bottom could be Balwand & Satta (when did tablas become common? and the string instrument seems to have a gourd at tuning end of the neck. (a vina or sitar?)
All men are pictured with Karas on their wrists; was this a common practise before Guru Gobind Singh Ji? Allenwalla 02:55, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Would the person who commissioned this have had himself included in the illustrations?
