The feet are sometimes bare, but more often are protected by sandals, or (as in the accompanying representation) by embroidered shoes.

Earrings adorn the ears; bracelets, sometimes accompanied by armlets, the arms.

A sword is generally worn at the left side.
The Vizier is ordinarily represented in one of two attitudes.

Either he stands with his two hands joined in front of him, the right hand in the left, and the fingers not clasped, but left loose--the ordinary attitude of passive and respectful attention, in which officers who carry nothing await the orders of the king,--or he has the right arm raised, the elbow bent, and the right hand brought to a level with his month, while the left hand rests upon the hilt of the sword worn at his left side.
