“Unlike the typical portrait of a Mughal Prince, this portrait is remarkable for depicting Dara with a bare torso & lungi, in an ascetic pose that has yogic associations, a pose known as gomukhasana.”

Me, I'm Nicholas Bakos, a.k.a. "NikoBako." I'm Greek (Roman really, but when I say that in English some five people in the world today understand what I'm talking about, so I use "Greek" for shorthand). I'm from New York. I live all over the place these days. The rest should become obvious from the blog.
