- Lot Description
George Chinnery (born London 1774-died Macao 1852) unsigned. Portrait miniature of an East India Company officer, probably Calcutta, ca. 1810-20. In original folding red leather case.
H 3-1/2 in. W 2.75 in.
George Chinnery is one of the most colorful English artists to emerge in India during the early years of the Nineteenth Century. First in Madras and later in Calcutta, he became one of a small cadre of successful artists, with countless commissions for miniature and large scale portraits from officers of the British East India Company. However, in 1825, he departed India, leaving behind a cloud of debt, settling in Macao for the rest of his life.
Condition: No damage noted.
