Description: What is it?

The robe is an excellent example of the complexity of the trade in Indian cotton during the eighteenth century. Its pattern reflects Indo-Europe decorative forms, which shows a synthesis of the European and Indian sensibilities. The robe not only includes Indian cotton components in the main body of the piece, but it is also edged with coordinating Dutch-woven trim of linen and wool at the neckline, front opening , and sleeves.

Artist: If any, who made it? How? Why?

The robe has no specific maker; however, the robe's fabric was drawn, painted, and dyed in India. Dutch traders transported the fabric to the Netherlands. In the Netherlands, the fabric was constructed to be a wentke, a robe worn by women in Hindeloopen, northern Netherlands. Wentke were typically worn for special occasions. In the mid-18th century, wentke were so common that businesses specialized in laundering the robes and reglazing them. The robe has a typical Indian floral pattern inspired by European "lace-patterned" silks. The fabric is in good condition and still has some of its glazed finish.

Description: The Viceregal lodge is a country house created by the British during the mid nineteenth century. It severed as the quarters for the governors and their counterparts. It now serves as the campus for the institute of Indian advanced study. It is grand and imposing, and included electricity and a tennis court.

Artist: Henry Irwin constructed this magnificent building. He worked for the Public Works Department in India during the late nineteenth century. It was built under Lord Dufferin, and it was meant to replace the residence at Peterhof, which Dufferin's predecessor called a "pigsty".

Analysis: The Viceregal Lodge is

a somber interpretation of English Renaissance architecture. It is a combination of Elizabethean and Jacobean styles, referred to as Jacobethan. It represents the power of the English's imperialism, which is why it does not look like any other Indian structure. Reflected British colonial values
