Two drawings of a boatwoman is a 4 by George Chinnery, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
George Chinnery drew two studies of a boatwoman in 1831. One sketch is darker and clearer, the other lighter and looser. She stands by a boulder with her broad-brimmed hat in front of her. The back of the sheet shows a quick sketch of an urn. Chinnery worked mostly in India and China, but this is British Romanticism. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Two drawings by George Chinnery depict a boatwoman standing beside a boulder, holding her broad-brimmed hat in front; one study is more defined than the other. On the reverse side of one sheet, a sketch of an urn is visible. The drawings are part of a volume containing 406 works created in Macau, Guangzhou, and Bengal. They were bequeathed in 1928 by James Orange as part of an album of 93 drawings by Chinnery.
