The pictures made by Indian artists for the British in India are called Company paintings. The artist Shiva Lal, who painted this one around 1860, ran an artist's shop in Patna. Like his painter cousin, Shiva Dayal Lal, Siva Lal relied to a great extent on the patronage of the local gentry. In the picture he shows one of them seated on a carpet, leaning against a bolster, watching dancing-girls and musicians.
