Painting Description
"Shuja ud-Daula, Nawab of Oudh, 1754-75" is an 18th-century oil painting by the British portrait artist Tilly Kettle. Created during Kettle's time in India, the painting depicts Nawab Shuja-ud-Daulah, who was the Subedar Nawab of Oudh from 1754 to 1775. As one of the earliest English portrait painters to work in India, Tilly Kettle's work represents a significant intersection of British and Indian art during the period of the British East India Company's expansion in the subcontinent.
The painting is notable for its detailed portrayal of the Nawab, who is depicted in regal attire, adorned with jewels and seated authoritatively. Kettle's mastery in capturing the opulence and power of Indian royalty is evident in the intricate details of the Nawab's garments and the luxurious accessories that surround him. The artwork serves as a historical document, reflecting the political and cultural dynamics of the time, as well as the Nawab's relationship with the British.
As a valuable piece of cultural heritage, "Shuja ud-Daula, Nawab of Oudh, 1754-75" is an important example of the portraiture genre and provides insight into the early period of British artistic presence in India. The painting is not only significant for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the understanding of the historical context of the 18th century in the Indian subcontinent.
