*** Please note, the description of this lot has changed.Tayler (William, amateur artist and civil servant of the East India Company, lived in India from 1829 until 1867, c. 1808-1892). Lord Elphinstone and Captain Parr riding on elephants, hog-hunting in India, watercolour heightened with white, over black chalk under-drawing, on paper mounted onto canvas, 435 x 655 mm (17 x 25 3/4 in), under glass, some minor surface dirt and browning, in ornate gilt frame, [circa 1830-1840]Provenance:[Possibly Hartnoll & Eyre] Painting for the British, n.d., no. 1 [label with attribution to Captain Parr, and title, affixed to reverse]Engraved:"The Death of the Hog. Dedicated to the Calcutta Tent Club", Drawn by William Tayler Esq. Engraved by F.C. Lewis. [n.d., c.1840.]*** The present work appears to be the original watercolour that F.C. Lewis' rare lithograph was based on. Numerous small differences within the image suggest it is the preparatory work for the print, rather than a copy after; most notably the changes in the hats of the men and the foliage. For several other similar examples of Tayler's watercolours from this period, see the Anne S.K. Brown Military Collection at the Brown University Library, who hold 18 watercolours in their collection (images can be found online via the Library of Congress website, see https://hdl.loc.gov/loc.wdl/wdl.9626).

Houghton Hall, The Prime Minister, The Empress and the Heritage, London, 1996, pp. 90 and 92, no. 8. A very similar table was sold, Christie's London. 15th April 1999, Lot 159 (£16,100).
