Paintings of India in the 1700's and early 1800's

Paintings of India in the 1700's and early 1800's by European artists and Indians painting in the European style

Ever wonder what India looked like before the industrial revolution of the 19th century?

The painting style of India was not a realistic style using the European style of realism. That is the style where the artist attempts to draw or paint something exactly as it looks like. Instead the Indian artists didn't use perspective and painted 2 dimensional art not meant to look realistic. From their paintings we don't really get to see what India really looked like, they were stylists, not realists.
