This miniature probably comes from the same Markandeya Purana series as two miniatures in the Victoria and Albert Museum (W.G. Archer, Indian Painting from the Punjab Hills, London, 1973, no. 61(i-ii), pl. 117, p. 164). For another miniature from the same series in this sale, please see the preceding lot.
