A vertically oriented opaque watercolor painting on gold paper depicts Babur, a man with a light skin tone, dark mustache, and beard, looking left. He wears a dark blue robe patterned with gold and a pointed gold hat. Golden flames radiate from his head within a green oval medallion. The medallion is centered on a gold ground surrounded by four purple flowers. A blue and gold border frames the composition.
