THE CHANGING WORLD OF
VISUAL ARTS
AJIT ,821
Class: VIII A
INTRODUCTION
• Colonial rule introduced several new art forms, styles,
materials and techniques which were creatively adapted by
Indian artists for local patrons and markets, both in elite and
popular circles.
• The European artists bought with them new styles and new
conventions of painting. They also brought the idea of realism
and technique of oil painting. This enabled the artists to
produce images that looked real.
PICTURESQUE
• The British artists thought that India as a quaint land , its
landscape was rugged and wild.
• They produced some of the most 0evocative images
picturesque landscapes of Britain’s newly conquered
territories in India. These were presented in Britain to
show its public about British Empire.
THE AURIAL AND DASHWOOD FAMILIES
OF CALCUTTA
• The British artists showed Indians as inferior and British
as superior and imperious.
• The British flaunted their clothes, stand arrogantly or
regally and should that they live a life of luxury in their
portraits.
• Many of the Indian Nawabs also began to commission their
oil portraits by European painters.
PAINTING HISTORY
• There was a third category of imperial of art called “history
painting”.
• This tradition sought to dramatise and recreate various
episodes of British imperial history and enjoyed great prestige
and popularity during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
