This interesting watercolour is reminiscent of works from the celebrated series of group portraits painted for the two brothers William and James Baillie circa 1815-19 in Delhi. This group of over ninety drawings by Indian artists, discovered amongst the Fraser Papers in 1979, is arguably one of the finest groups of Company School pictures yet known.
