India: an Indian female (1837).
Auto-translated text View Original Source
Image description

Hand-coloured image painted on a thin sheet of mica from a manuscript entitled: 'Seventy-Two Specimens of Caste in India' (Madura, southern India: 1837). The full manuscript consists of 72 full-colour hand-painted images of men and women of the various castes and religious and ethnic groups found in Madura, Tamil Nadu, at that time. The manuscript shows Indian dress and jewelry adornment in the Madura region as they appeared before the onset of Western influences on South Asian dress and style. Each illustrated portrait is captioned in English and in Tamil, and the title page of the work includes English, Tamil, and Telugu.
