Artist

Mirza Akbar

Mirza Akbar is an Impressionism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

These drawings come from 19th-century India, made when artists were sketching daily life and scenes around them. Two untitled works on paper show buildings, people, or maybe a street, simple line drawings that feel like quick notes rather than finished pictures. The artist’s name is Mirza Akbar, but little else is known. Flip to Untitled (1840-1870, Drawing) to see how light lines suggest shadows and shapes without extra fuss.
