More about this artwork

"River View with a Junk (near Rajmahal)" is a captivating artwork by Samuel Davis, an artist known for his detailed and insightful renditions of landscapes and scenes from his travels. Created sometime between 1777 and 1808, this artwork offers a serene glimpse into life along an Indian riverbank.The painting displays a large 'junk', a type of boat often used in Asian waters, prominently in the foreground. Its substantial sail, hoisted high, catches the breeze and guides the vessel gently through the waters. The boat is sketched with remarkable detail, showing figures onboard engaging in daily tasks, adding a lively human element to the scene.In the background, the riverbank is adorned with sparse vegetation and trees, skilfully rendered to give a sense of the tranquil yet vibrant life along the river. The gentle sloping of the land and the soft, clear sky contribute to the overall calmness and beauty of the landscape.This piece not only showcases Davis's skill in rendering delicate watercolors but also reflects his keen eye for capturing the essence of the places he visited.
