Abstract
This article deals with western artists visiting India and
Indian professional artists in Victorian times, who were
attracted to photography, either taking their own pictures or
having other people do it. The western artists mentioned are:
Louis Rousselet, Valentine Cameron Prinsep (a professional
artist commissioned to make a large painting of the Imperial
Assemblage on 1 January 1877 in Delhi), and George Percy Jacomb-
Hood. Brief mention is made of the influence on Indian artists.
