What do portraits of the emperors tell us about the Mughals? | Accompanying Images | Captions and Descriptions

A number of portraits are chopped up and spread around the room. Students are placed in groups to reconstruct these in various stages, with a number of stimulating tasks to complete as they do so. Once the process is finished and each image has been thoroughly analysed, students provide a written answer to the question “What do portraits of the emperors tell us about Mughal India?”.
