Autor: GEORGE CHINNERY (1774-1852)
Título: indian temple
Descripción: Ver traducción automática
Indian Temple. Artist: George Chinnery (British, London 1774-1852 Macau). Dimensions: sheet: 4 15/16 x 6 9/16 in. (12.5 x 16.7 cm). Date: ca. 1808-12. In the early nineteenth century, the British East India Company's growing presence in India encouraged London-trained artists to travel to the subcontinent. Chinnery left England in 1802 to seek portrait commissions in Madras, Calcutta, and Dacca (present-day Dhaka, Bangladesh). This lively sketch of a small Indian temple, falling into ruin and buffeted by a passing squall, likely dates to his residence in Dacca between 1808 and 1812. In that period the artist stayed with the British East India representative Sir Charles D'Oyly; this work was once housed in an album assembled by a collector who knew both D'Oyly and Chinnery.
