Company School or Company Painting is a term that defines a hybrid Indo-European style made by Indian artists in India under British rule during the 18th and 19th centuries. The style reflects the influences of Mughal style with some European techniques such as perspective or volume made mainly for a Western clientele. Company School style went into decline with the arrival of photography towards the end of the 19th century. Original watercolour on paper. Image size: 480 x 280 mm. Framed size: 615 x 500 mm.
