The work in total illustrates Solvyns's observations of Hindu customs, celebrations, occupations, costume and the caste system. Customs and habits are described in the accompanying text. Dutch native, Balthasar Solvyns, travelled to Calcutta at the end of the 18th century and worked as an artist, providing illustrations for a report by Alexander Kyd on his expedition to Penang and the Andaman Islands. Observing that the British displayed a keen interest in Indian costume and culture, Solvyns was inspired produce “A Collection of Two Hundred and Fifty Coloured Etchings Descriptive of the Manners, Customs, and Dress of the Hindoos” in 1799. The present work is an enlarged version of this, with a total of 288 plates with text in French and English.
