T0004. Birbal and Akbar's Portrait in the Mirror

Akbar wants a perfect portrait. No painter can supply the portrait that he wants, but Birbal offers him a mirror as the perfect portrait.

Notes: This story is in Sawhney; the more usual Birbal story is T0611, where Birbal rescues the portrait painter who is the victim of a nobleman's joke.
