Hand-coloured aquatint engraving by D. Havell after Henry Salt, on wove paper (watermark 'J Whatman'). An excellent view of Tamil Nadu including one of the great irrigation tanks: a true masterpiece of early technology. Henry Salt, artist, traveller, diplomat and collector of antiquities, was born at Lichfield, Staffordshire, England on 14 June 1780. He was determined to become a portrait-painter, and upon leaving school was taught drawing by Glover, the watercolour-painter of Lichfield. In 1797 he went to London to study with Joseph Farington, R.A., and then with John Hoppner, R.A. in 1800. The turning point in his career was 3 June 1802, when Salt left London for an Eastern tour with George, viscount Valentia (afterwards Lord Mountnorris), whom he accompanied as secretary and draughtsman. He visited India, Sri Lanka, and Abyssinia, returning to England on 26 Oct. 1806. He made many drawings, some of which served to illustrate Lord Valentia's Voyages and Travels to India, published in 1809. The present image is fromTwenty-four Views in St. Helena, the Cape, India, Ceylon, the Red Sea, Abyssinia and Egypt, published by William Miller, with hand-coloured aquatints by D. Havell and J. Bluck from Salt's own drawings. The originals of all these drawings were retained by Lord Valentia, who also retained the ownership of the copper plates after Salt's death. The format and style of presentation of the plates is similar to Thomas and William Daniell's great work, Oriental Scenery (1795-1808), and the artistry displayed by both Salt and his engravers is in many cases more than a match for the Daniell's images. Salt visited Sri Lanka only a few years after the British had wretes power from the Dutch, who had been the dominant western presence on the island from the middle of the 17th century until 1795.
