Description
English: A painting by the Daniell's of Chitpur Road in Calcutta. Represents Plate 2 of the second set of Thomas and William Daniell's 'Oriental Scenery'. The Chitpore Road in Calcutta led north through the Bara or Great Bazaar, and was the main thoroughfare and market for the Bengali community in the city. Various wealthy Indians lived in this area like '...a native Bengal merchant...' whose residence has a verandah overlooking the street and an open roof-top pavilion looking towards the temple in the distance.
