介绍（中）	这是18世纪初，马哈拉纳·桑格拉姆·辛格（1710–34年在位）统治期间，在拉贾斯坦邦乌代布尔的梅瓦尔宫廷以莫卧儿风格创作的一小群精致的自然主义画作之一。这件作品很不寻常，因为它纪念了上个世纪中叶发生的一次狩猎：骑马者的肖像似乎是莫卧儿皇帝沙贾汗（1628年至1628年在位）的肖像。正如最近对包括乌代浦在内的宫廷工作室库存的研究所表明的那样，18世纪，许多拉吉普特宫廷都制作了影射前莫卧儿皇帝的画作，当时艺术家可能受到了前半个世纪进入这些皇室收藏的莫卧儿作品的启发莫卧儿皇帝骑马进入左上角的场景，随行的是徒步的猎人（shikaris）。它们大多穿着狩猎绿色的衣服，在起伏的岩石山丘和浅色树叶中跟踪猎物，一群鹿和训练有素的猎豹。这只鹿很可能一直在镀银的水池里喝酒，但现在它们意识到狩猎后就散开了。其中一只已经成为猎豹的猎物。
介绍（英）	This is one of a small group of refined, naturalistic paintings in the Mughal manner made at the Mewar court at Udaipur, Rajasthan, in the beginning of the eighteenth century, during the reign of the Maharana Sangram Singh (r. 1710–34). This work is unusual because it commemorates a hunt that occurred in the middle of the previous century: the portrait of the equestrian rider appears to be that of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor (r. 1628–58). Paintings alluding to former Mughal emperors were made at a number of Rajput courts in the eighteenth century, when artists were perhaps inspired by Mughal works that had entered those princely collections over the previous half century, as recent studies of court studio inventories, including Udaipur, have demonstrated. The Mughal emperor is seen on horseback entering the scene upper left accompanied by his huntsmen (shikaris) on foot. They are mostly dressed in hunting green and stalk the prey, a herd of deer with trained cheetahs, through a landscape of undulating rocky hillocks and light foliage. The deer have likely been drinking at the silvered pool but now scatter as they become aware of the hunt. One has already fallen prey to a cheetah.
