Hardcover. Zustand: Good. An authoritative work on the landscape paintings and drawings produced by British artists in the Indian sub-continent from 1725 to 1918. Some were commissioned by the East India Company and its successors, some were made for sale to private clients, others for reproduction as illustrations to texts, and yet others were sketches made as private records of family life in India. Essays by ten different art historians situate these works in the history of landscape painting, and in the history of British attitudes to India. Numerous reproductions in colour and b/w of works in collections in Britain and India - including many not accessible to the public - make this an essential reference for anyone interested in the topic.
