Jahangir with a Portrait of Akbar is an opaque watercolor on paper created by the artist Hashim around 1610–1614, with the face retouched by Abu'l Hasan (Nadir al-Zaman), as noted in the inscription on the work. The painting dates from the reign of the Mughal emperor Jahangir and represents a period of flourishing imperial patronage of the arts in early seventeenth-century India. This work is an example of the highly refined portraiture that developed at the Mughal court, where artists were often commissioned to create detailed likenesses of rulers and their ancestors. The image depicts Emperor Jahangir in profile, richly attired in a jeweled turban and embroidered garments, holding a portrait of his father, Emperor Akbar.

The composition centers Jahangir against a plain green background, with a radiant nimbus encircling his head, signifying his imperial status. The portrait of Akbar, also shown in profile and haloed, is set within a smaller frame, and both figures are rendered with meticulous attention to facial features, textiles, and jewelry. The surrounding border is decorated with a dark blue ground and gold floral motifs, emphasizing the luxurious aesthetic associated with Mughal manuscript painting. The painting is in the Louvre in Paris, in the Department of Islamic Arts.

The inscription credits both Hashim and Abu'l Hasan (Nadir al-Zaman), the latter being a prominent court artist favored by Jahangir. Works such as this were often produced for imperial albums (muraqqa‘) and served to reinforce dynastic legitimacy and filial reverence. The collaboration between two leading artists of Jahangir's atelier reflects the high standards and collaborative practices of the Mughal imperial workshop during this period.
