This painting shows Colonel H.R. Thuillier and his wife Emmeline with their dogs and rickshaw drivers. The people in the photo are separated, which is different from other group photos by the same photographer. This photo was taken the year Colonel Thuillier became the surveyor general of India, which is an interesting fact about his life. You can learn more about this type of photography by looking up the artist: Raja Deen Dayal (Indian, 1844–1905)
