Stay-at-home British Palatte

Product Overview

This book explores how India profoundly shaped the art of George Stubbs, William Blake, and J. M. W. Turner, even though they never visited the subcontinent. Climate, trade, pigments, texts, and moral ideas from India transformed the British artistic palette during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Offering a fresh global perspective on British art, the book will appeal to students, researchers, and general readers interested in art, empire, and cultural exchange.
