Title devised by the cataloguer. The details of the title given in June 2020 were taken from a duplicate print held by the National Army Museum, London, Accession Number NAM. 1965-11-113-44. This states Mushir Zadi was the wife of the Nawab Wazir of Oudh, Sadaat Ali Khan II. Further research suggests she is known as Khursheed Zadi.
