Probably Ahmad Khan Bangash, an underling of Ahmad Shah Abdali (who invaded India several times) and eventually Nawab of Farrukhabad. Gouache and gold on card. Awadh (Oudh) circa late 18th century (image 14 by 10cm; leaf 30 by 24.5cm).

The painting has a pasted strip of patterned running horizontally below the lower group, indicating it possibly being an unfinished work with this yet to be overpainted.
