About this work

George Chinnery drew figures from daily life in India around 1825. It’s a sheet of paper with pencil or ink on it. The drawing shows two men standing together and three single figures, one with a hookah. Chinnery worked in British-ruled India and liked to sketch local people. This work is small and quick, not a finished painting. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
