miniature

Lovely, but I would like to know more about who the figures are and what media were used.

Thank you linda .at left hand Mughal emperor Jahangir is standing and at right his father Emperor Shah Jahan is standing . usually in miniature we have to paint with finest handmade brushes and colors have to be water based but we do not use water as medium we use white portion of egg .in this painting i use oil pastels too :) and one more thing we have to use handmade paper too .
