Nur Jahan

1577-1645

Twentieth wife and chief consort of the Mughal emperor Jahangir. She is often described as the power behind the throne. And this was at the peak of the Mughal empire, so that makes her very powerful indeed.

Note on the illustration: I found no portraits from her lifetime, but I gave minimal instructions to two different AIs and they came up with something similar, so they must be in cahoots, or just getting their inspiration from the same place.
