"Indian Views" is a collection of artworks by Charles D'Oyly (1781–1845), a British public official and artist who spent a significant part of his career in India. D'Oyly was born in India and later educated in England, but he returned to India in 1797 to work for the East India Company. Throughout his tenure in various administrative roles, he developed a keen interest in painting and sketching the Indian landscape, architecture, and people.

D'Oyly's "Indian Views" typically encompass a range of lithographs and drawings that depict the diverse scenery and rich cultural tapestry of India during the British Raj. His work is characterized by attention to detail and a desire to capture the essence of Indian life and environment. The collection includes images of bustling bazaars, serene river scenes, monumental forts, and detailed architectural studies, offering a visual record of the subcontinent during the early 19th century.

As an artist, D'Oyly was influenced by the picturesque movement and sought to convey the beauty and exoticism of the Indian subcontinent to a Western audience. His works were often published in the form of albums or series, such as "Antiquities of Dacca" (1814) and "Views of Calcutta and its Environs" (1848), which were well-received in both India and Britain.

"Indian Views" not only reflects D'Oyly's artistic talents but also serves as an important historical document, providing insight into the cultural and social milieu of colonial India. The collection is significant for its contribution to the documentation of Indian heritage and for its influence on the perception of India in the eyes of the Western world during the 19th century.

D'Oyly's work has been preserved in various institutions and private collections, and it continues to be of interest to historians, art collectors, and those fascinated by the visual history of India's colonial past.
