PROPERTY OF A GENTLEMAN
Engraved:
by William Finden, 1839
Roberts painted this watercolour after an 'on-the-spot' drawing by the amateur artist and author Thomas Bacon (1813-1892), who lived in India between 1831 and 1836. An engraving of this work was produced by William Finden for Bacon’s 1839 publication The Oriental Annual; Containing a Series of Tales, Legends, & Historical Romances.
We are very grateful to Krystyna Matyjaszkiewicz for her help when cataloguing this lot.
