Circumcision ceremony for Akbars sons, painting 126 from an Akbar-nama (Book
Circumcision ceremony for Akbars sons, painting 126 from an Akbar-nama (Book of Akbar) of Abu l Fazl (Indian, 1551-1602), c. 1602-3. This page is from a copy of the biography of Akbar that was completed not long before his death in 1605. It depicts him much younger, during the festivities held on October 22, 1573, in his newly built capital city of Fatehpur Sikri, near Agra, on the occasion of the circumcision ceremony for his three young sons. Dancers in Chaghatai Turkish dress perform as Akbars weight in gold is being distributed to the poor. Akbar wears a simple white tunic, or jama, stained at the armpits by aromatic musk. A curved dagger in a red velvet sheath is tucked into his golden sash, and he is crowned with a white crested turban
