Solution

The correct option is C Jahangir
Jahangir was especially fond of art and architecture. He commissioned, catalogued and preserved many artworks. He also kept a zoo where he documented each species of animal. He was exposed to European artworks through the Jesuits who visited his court and encouraged his court painters to adopt European styles as well.
