English: Fresco depicting Bhai Bidhi Chand presenting the horses Dilbagh and Gulbagh to Guru Hargobind, from the pre-1984 Akal Takht, circa mid-19th century. It depicts a story related to Bidhi Chand Chhina finding the horses (named Dilbagh and Gulbagh, later renamed Jan Bhai and Suhela, respectively) of Guru Hargobind. "Lost fresco from Sri Akal Takht, Baba Bidhi Chand presents ‘Dilbagh and Gulbagh’ the horses stolen by the Mughals, that he retrieved from Lahore Fort, to Guru Hargobind Sahib" ('Sikh Architecture' by P.S. Arshi, 1985)
Description of the mural (from: [1]):
The third was related to an impressive historical event that illustrated Guru Hargobind in the act of receiving two horses from Bhai Bidhi Chand. The sensitivity of the event rather reminded the viewer the historical context of the time when Guru Hargobind reacted sharply to the execution of his father and his predecessor Guru Arjun Dev, who, in 1606, was put to death through the orders of Jahangir. He constructed Akal Takht and trained himself and his followers in the art of war. He encouraged the Sikhs to send gifts of horses and arms. The purpose was to defend the Sikhs against tyranny and aggression.
Two pedigree horses of excelling beauty, named Gulbagh and Dilbagh, were brought by the Sikh followers of Kabul to be offered to the Guru. On the way, the Governor of Lahore, on seeing these horses, was so much bewitched that he, at once, seized these for the royal stable. On hearing the highhandedness of the Mughal authority, Bhai Bidhi Chand, a follower of the Guru, retrieved the horses by stratagem, disguised as a hay-seller.
The mural illustrated Bidhi Chand bowing with folded hands before the Guru and delivering the horses to their rightful owner, to whose stable they were being brought from Kabul initially. An inscription in the mural in Gurmukhi characters stated: "Horses brought by Bidhi Chand, Your Honour."
