Views of Calcutta and its environs
Views of Calcutta and its environs is a travelogue of 1848 by Charles D'Oyly, held by Heidelberg University Library, presenting the Indian city and surrounding places to European readers. The lithographs show street and garden scenes with carts, elephants, cattle, pedestrians and riders, drawn in soft tonal shading with grey washes and light figure work that a designer could borrow for period colonial-era scenes.
