A View of Calcutta taken from Fort William
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a mesmerizing oil painting by British artist William Hodges. The artwork, measuring 90.7 x 153cm, captures the stunning vista of Calcutta as seen from the vantage point of Fort William. The painting showcases the city's architectural splendor with its towering castle-like structures and fortress walls that dominate the skyline. The canvas depicts a bustling urban scene, with sailing boats gracefully gliding along the river below. Hodges skillfully portrays the time of day through his masterful use of light and shadow, capturing a vibrant daytime atmosphere. The clouds in the sky add depth to the composition while enhancing its overall beauty. As we delve into this late eighteenth-century masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness life during this era. People can be seen going about their daily activities on rooftops and in building exteriors, adding a sense of realism to the scene. This painting not only showcases Hodges' talent as an English artist but also serves as a historical record of Calcutta during this period. It offers us a glimpse into how architecture and natural spaces coexisted harmoniously within an ever-evolving cityscape. With its impeccable attention to detail and breathtaking scenery, "A View of Calcutta taken from Fort William" is truly a remarkable piece that captivates viewers with its charm and elegance.
