A work by the 17th century Mughal natural artist Ustad Mansur. From the British Royal Collection. Assumed to be a Flap-necked Chameleon or possibly Indian chameleon on account of the highly detailed view showing a the feet of the animal where each foot exhibits fused digits in opposed groups, a lighter band by the edge of the mouth, and a line of white scales on the underside of the belly.
