Description:
The first oval painting (in clockwise order) in the lower/outer circle in the ceiling of the mandapa (pillared hall) is the depiction of the meeting between Jain acharya (those who impart knowledge) Shri Jinachadra Suri and the Mughal Emperor Akbar. He was invited to the Mughal court through Akbar’s court official Karamchand Bacchawat, who was from Bikaner. The painting has havelis (mansions) in the background, and the two leaders greet each other at the forefront. It is also said that Karamchand went to receive Jinachandra Suri on the outskirts of the city. The inscription reads, ‘Shri Jinadatta Suriji Akbar Badshah.’
