"In order to find favour with the khan's senior wife I took paints and a piece of leather from my pocket, where I had put them in advance, and started painting a portrait of the khan with my finger". John Castle
Abulkahir’s people were enchanted with the play of light and shadow in the picture which was being drawn. Abulkhair smiled sheepishly as he was not used to posing for pictures.
"The portrait turned out to be very good and the khan's wife noticed that the face of her husband and the portrait I had painted had been similar like two drops of water". John Castle
It was the first time that an artist had drawn Kazakh royalty. He drew life itself with pastels.
