English portraitist Tilly Kettle worked in India and the first European artist to do so. Kettle lived in Madras and Kolkata but created his final artwork in Syria. This portrait of two well-to-do Anglo children dressed in Eastern garb was a typical tribute and acknowledgment that the British were proud of their empire and indigenous peoples. This delightful Mixed-Media tableau is a fine representation of the Victorian Era and perfect for luxury homes in Greenwich, Connecticut.
