Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book -: The intimate connexion which has so long subsisted between this country and the continent of India, naturally renders every Englishman deeply interested in all that relates to a quarter of the globe which has been the theatre of scenes highly important to his country ; and which, perhaps, at the moment when he peruses the description of it, may be the residence or the grave of some of his dearest friends. It is only matter of surprize, that, of a country so nearly allied to us, so little should be known. The public is, indeed, greatly indebted to the learned labours of gentlemen, who have resided there, for the information which they have afforded concerning the Laws and the Religion of the Hindoo tribes ; as well as for correct and well digested details of the transactions of the Mogul government. But of the face of the country, of its arts, and natural productions, little has yet been said. Gentlemen who have resided long in India lose the idea of the first impression which that very curious country makes upon an entire stranger : the novelty is soon effacted, and the mind, by a common and natural operation, soon directs its views to more abstract speculation ; reasoning assumes the place of observation, and the traveller is lost in the philosopher. About The Author -: William Hodges RA ( 1744 1797) was an English painter. He was a member of James Cook's second voyage to the Pacific Ocean, and is best known for the sketches and paintings of locations he visited on that voyage, including Table Bay, Tahiti, Easter Island, New Zealand, Dusky Sound and the Antarctic. As Hodges was employed by the Admiralty on Cook's second voyage, all paintings and drawings of the voyage belonged to them. However, he repeated some of them. The Title 'Travels in India: During the years 1780, 1781, 1782 & 1783 written/authored/edited by William Hodges', published in the year 2021.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an illustrated travelogue based on the author's time in India from 1780 to 1783. In examining the Indian landscape, society, and culture through the lens of a European artist, the author presents socio-cultural commentary alongside their artistic reflections. The author was invited by the administration to join the Governor General's tour through Bengal, and describes that journey in rich detail including a description of the craftmanship of Indian boats, the hospitality of the Indian people, and the richness of the Indian landscape during the monsoon season. This book is a valuable glimpse into a period of significant transition in Indian history, through the eyes of a keen and often insightful observer. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
