John Lockwood Kipling is an Impressionism artist. 16 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

John Lockwood Kipling filled sketchbooks with the daily life he saw around him in British India, drawing craftsmen at work, farmers at market, and seed planters in fields. In 1870 and 1872 he captured hands guiding needles, tools turning wire, and earth turning under the sun, all in crisp pencil lines that feel almost photographic. Tap Planting seeds at Khamgaon to step into one of those sunlit fields.
