The Bābur-nāma in English (Memoirs of Bābur)

Note 1183 — SECTION II. KĀBUL666 (continued 2)

Annette Susannah Beveridge translation

Perhaps it was a recess, resembling a gate-way (W.-i-B. I.O. 215 f. 151 and 217 f. 127b). The impression conveyed by Bābur’s words here to the artist who in B.M. Or. 3714, has depicted the scene, is that there was a vestibule opening into the tent by a door and that the Mīrzā sat near that door. It must be said however that the illustration does not closely follow the text, in some known details.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
