Daswanth or Dasavant (b. 1560 - d. 1584) was a Mughal-era painter in the service of the emperor Akbar.
== Life == While not much is known of his early life, it is known that he was Hindu, and the son of a palanquin-bearer. After Daswanth showed natural talent by painting and drawing on walls, the emperor learned of him, and he began to be taught by Khwāja 'Abd al-Samad, a Persian master painter. Abd al-Samad's work was fairly traditional and conservative.
