Image description

In 1855 the British sent a diplomatic mission to the court of King Mindon Min (r.1853-1878). Grant (1813-1880) was sent as the official artist of the mission. Together with a privately-printed book of notes, his drawings give a vivid account of the journey, and a number were used for illustrations to Henry Yule's 'A Narrative of the mission sent by the Governor General of India to the Court of Ava in 1855' published in 1858.
