Painting Description
"Kandahar Lady of Rank, Engaged in Smoking" is a notable lithograph by James Rattray, featured as plate 29 in his work *Scenery, Inhabitants and Costumes of Afghanistan*. This artwork was engraved by Robert Carrick around 1848. The lithograph is part of a broader collection that aims to document the landscapes, people, and traditional attire within Afghanistan during the mid-19th century. In this particular plate, Rattray depicts an affluent woman from Kandahar indulging in the act of smoking, a pastime that was both a leisure activity and a cultural practice among certain classes during that period. The image is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its ethnographic insight, offering a glimpse into the societal norms and daily life of Afghan women of rank during the 1800s. This work, like others in Rattray's collection, is valued for its detailed representation and historical context, contributing to the understanding of Afghanistan's cultural and social landscape during the era.
