A royal ram with a gold chain, c. 1585; border added probably 1700s. Creator: Unknown
A royal ram with a gold chain, c. 1585; border added probably 1700s. The ram in this painting is a particularly well-groomed animal that was probably kept in the royal menagerie and attended to by special keepers. The puffs of hair on the rams back have been coloured with henna, and he wears a decorative chain of bells across his chest. The Mughal rulers collected and exhibited specimens of various animals from their territories out of a scientific interest as well as a desire to display the extent of their influence over the land and its inhabitants
