Nur Jahan, born Mehr-un-Nissa was the chief wife and empress consort of the Mughal emperor Jahangir. Nur Jahan was born Mehr-un-Nissa, the daughter of a Grand Vizier who served under Akbar. Nur Jahan was a powerful and influential woman in the court. She was a remarkable leader in a male-dominated world.
She was a poet, an excellent hunter and also an innovative architect. Her design for her parents' tomb in Agra later inspired the construction of the Taj Mahal. She killed 4 tigers with 6 musket shots sitting atop an Elephant. The elephant wouldn’t be standing still standing next to a furious tiger. she is considered by some historians to have been the real power behind the throne for more than fifteen years.
P. S. Nur Jahan holding a musket in the left Painting and holding a wine cup in the right painting. That was pretty rare for the time and that shows how brave she was.
