Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. 4to., 165pp., 114 fine illustrations including 32 in colour from the collection of the India Office Library and Records, bibliography, appendix, index, original cloth gilt. A fine clean copy in a fine bright pictorial dustwrapper. During the 18th and 19th centuries an increasing number of British men and women explored and sketched in the Indian subcontinent, finding ready subjects for their landscape studies in the beauty and drama of its scenery - the great Mughal monuments, imposing forts and palaces, mosques, tombs and temples, elegant Presidency capitals, and the natural grandeur of mountains, rivers and waterfalls. Here the authors discuss the topographical prints of 40 of these itinerant artists, with extracts from contemporary descriptions of the scenes they illustrated and from their own travel journals. The processes involved in producing the original sketches as prints are full described and an appendix lists the publication details of over 2,000 prints by artists mentioned in the text.
