View of a Delhi street, from a drawing by William Carpenter (1818-1899).
Carpenter spent several years travelling around India in the 1850s painting scenes and portraits. He left India for England sold reproduction rights to his paintings to the Illustrated London News, which published them as India descended into the chaos of the Mutiny of 1857. When Carpenter had a one-man exhibition of 275 paintings in 1881 all of the paintings were purchased by the new Victoria and Albert Museum.
