India, 18th century Miniature painted in gouache, mounted on an album page framed with floral foliage, depicting three kneeling men, attentive to the words of the master, recognizable by his white turban. Miniature size: 24.5 x 18 cm (page: 29.5 x 23.5 cm) This scene illustrates a meditative reflection, probably around a poetic text whose Sufi dimension is underlined by the presence of an animated rosary in the hand of a listener. The visit to the master, opaque pigments, Mughal India, 18th century
