19
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
A group of figures in Western dress is a 19 by George Chinnery, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
George Chinnery drew this scene in 1825. It shows Western men and women inside a room, with a door frame and a sofa on the left. The artist worked in the Romantic style. The sketch feels quick and lively, like a moment caught in time. It’s not a polished picture—just lines on paper. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
A sketch by George Chinnery depicts Western men and women seated in an interior space, with a door frame and a sofa visible on the left side. The drawing is part of a volume containing 406 works created during Chinnery’s time in Macau, Guangzhou, and Bengal. The drawing was later donated in 1928 by James Orange as part of an album of 93 Chinnery works.
