Yusuf Ali Khan was the scion of a noble land-owning family of the then United Provinces in India. Amrita Sher-Gil was engaged to him for a while in the early '30s of the Twentieth century. She probably had painted his portrait during their relationship. But, by 1931, she became disillusioned with him and broke off her engagement.
