GEORGE FRANKLIN ATKINSON (1861 - 1947)

Ten tinted lithographs from the 1860 edition of "Curry and Rice" or the "Ingredients of Our Social Life in India", on forty plates, published in London. The titles: Our cloth Merchants, Our Bedroom, Our Coffee Shop, Our Joint Magistrate, Our Magistrate's Wife, Our Judge's Wife, Our Judge, Our Colonel, Our Traveller's Bungalow, Our Burra Khana. While the 1911 edition reproduced the actual water colors by Atkinson, the 1860 edition from which the above plates come, had tinted lithographs drawn by an artist based on the water colors. All prints are mounted.
