"A View Near Agra" is a notable landscape painting by the British artist William Hodges, who is recognized for his work as a landscape painter and for his role in documenting the British exploration of India during the 18th century. Hodges was among the first professional landscape painters to visit India, and his works provide a valuable visual record of the subcontinent during the period of early British colonialism.

The painting, created during Hodges' stay in India from 1780 to 1783, depicts a serene and picturesque view near the city of Agra, home to the famous Taj Mahal. Hodges' work is characterized by its attention to the effects of light and atmosphere, and "A View Near Agra" is no exception. It captures the unique Indian landscape with its lush vegetation, distant architecture, and the play of light, which would have been exotic and captivating to his contemporary British audience.

As a significant contributor to the genre of British landscape painting, Hodges influenced the perception of India in Britain and Europe through his artistic interpretation of the Indian environment. "A View Near Agra" is not only a representation of the natural beauty of the Indian landscape but also a document reflecting the historical context of the British presence in India.

The painting is an important part of Hodges' oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of the cultural exchange between Britain and India during the 18th century. It is held in high regard for its artistic merit and for its role in the history of British art, as well as for its contribution to the visual documentation of India's colonial past.
