Collection
William Daniell, Thomas Daniell The Shiva Cave, Elephanta Island.
Thomas and William Daniell visited Bombay (Mumbai) in 1793 in the final months of their seven-year Indian stay, and met Scottish-born artist James Wales, who became their guide to nearby Elephanta Island and its rock-hewn caves, an ancient former Hindu Shiva temple. The Daniells worked in partnership, William drawing outlines with a camera obscura, and Thomas completing works in watercolour.
