"Port of Cheringhee Calcutta" is a notable artwork by the English landscape painter Thomas Daniell, who is renowned for his depictions of Indian scenery. Created during the late 18th century, this piece is part of a larger body of work that resulted from Daniell's extensive travels in India, along with his nephew William Daniell. Thomas Daniell's journey to India began in 1785, and over the course of several years, he produced a significant number of drawings and paintings that captured the diverse landscapes, architecture, and urban scenes of the subcontinent.

The "Port of Cheringhee Calcutta" specifically illustrates a view of the bustling port area of Calcutta (now Kolkata), which was a major hub for trade and commerce during the British colonial period. The city served as the capital of British India until 1911 and was an important center for cultural and artistic exchange. Daniell's work is characterized by its detailed representation of the port's activities, architecture, and ships, as well as its atmospheric depiction of the light and weather conditions typical of the region.

This painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, providing insight into the urban and economic landscape of 18th-century Calcutta. Thomas Daniell's work, including "Port of Cheringhee Calcutta," contributed to shaping European perceptions of India during the time and remains a valuable resource for understanding the visual culture and colonial history of the period.

As part of his larger project titled "Oriental Scenery," Thomas Daniell's paintings and aquatints, including the "Port of Cheringhee Calcutta," were influential in introducing the British public to the exotic landscapes of India. His works are held in high esteem and can be found in various art collections, museums, and institutions around the world, continuing to be studied and appreciated for their historical significance and artistic beauty.
