These were the products of an aggressive and dynamic colonial endeavor spearheaded by “the Grandest Society of Merchants in the universe”—the East India Company. Founded in 1600, this powerful collective of London-based merchants controlled every aspect of British involvement in India until 1813. Although Parliament ended its commercial monopoly on all trade east of the southern tip of Africa in that year, the company continued as the governing bureaucratic and military presence on the subcontinent until 1857. — — Among the “riches of Asia” exported to Europe were paintings, drawings, and prints produced by the many British artists, draftsmen, surveyors, engineers, and amateurs who traveled to the Indian subcontinent in search of patronage and aesthetic inspiration. Company Culture, organized to complement Traces of India: Photography, Architecture, and the Politics of Representation, examined the role played by visual artists in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries in documenting the East India Company’s extraordinary imperial initiative and formulating the image of the British presence in India. Selected from the Center’s rich collection of paintings, works on paper, and rare books, the exhibition focused on the period from 1770 to 1830. It explored shared themes, such as strategies of representation, imperialism, and the formulation of national identity for British India. — — Credits — — Company Culture was organized by the Center and curated by Morna O’Neill, PhD candidate in History of Art, Yale University. — — Yale Center for British Art 1117 995830003408651 583000 N590.2 .A83 (YCBA) 13422488 323 300054686 publication event Malcolm Cormack, ^Concise Catalogue of Paintings in the Yale Center for British Art^, Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, CT, 1985, pp. 232-233, N590.2 .A83 (YCBA) Yale Center for British Art Malcolm Cormack ycba_actor_6010 Cormack Malcolm 300025492 Author Yale Center for British Art ycba_actor_1281 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n77005277 http://vocab.getty.edu/ulan/500303557 https://viaf.org/viaf/155449049 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6352575 Yale Center for British Art 300025574 Publisher 1985 1985 1985 New Haven, CT 1117 9964004393408651 6400439 V 1199 (YCBA) 79457806 1720 300054686 publication event Morna O'Neill, ^Company Culture : British Artists and the East India Company 1770-1830: October 16, 2003-January 11, 2004, ^, Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, 2003, no. 4, V 1199 (YCBA) Yale Center for British Art Morna O'Neill ycba_actor_9449 O'Neill Morna 300025492 Author Yale Center for British Art ycba_actor_1281 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n77005277 http://vocab.getty.edu/ulan/500303557 https://viaf.org/viaf/155449049 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6352575 Yale Center for British Art 300025574 Publisher 2003 2003 2003 New Haven 1117 9932985363408651 3298536 N8214.5 I5 B75 1978 (YCBA) 54243358 1905 300054686 publication event Stuart Cary Welch, ^The British view of India : selected English paintings from the Paul Mellon collection, ^, American Federation of Arts, New York, 1978, N8214.5 I5 B75 1978 (YCBA) Yale Center for British Art Stuart Cary Welch ycba_actor_10642 Welch Stuart Cary 300025492 Author American Federation of Arts ycba_actor_2780 http://vocab.getty.edu/ulan/500303692 American Federation of Arts 300025574 Publisher 1978 1978 1978 New York 1117 300157782 acquisition Yale Center for British Art ycba_actor_1281 YCBA BAC Yale Center for British Art British Art Center 1977 0 300203630 Owner 1981 1981 1981 300138913 gift ycba_term_2036258 sky 300343840 ycba_term_2036248 clouds 9427 ycba_term_2036550 elephants (animals) 300015571 ycba_term_32654 cityscape 300047600 ycba_term_26946 statues 300037737 ycba_term_36746 screen (furniture) 300132410 ycba_term_17587 trees 300005891 ycba_term_31457 mausoleum 300006958 ycba_term_31806 monument 300002230 ycba_term_15959 cupolas 300003228 ycba_term_16008 stairs 300000994 ycba_term_15672 arches 300001571 ycba_term_15679 columns (architectural elements) 300002767 ycba_term_30563 doorway 300011176 ycba_term_12865 stone 300010463 ycba_term_10127 brick Delhi 7001535 ycba_term_1930196 Delhi 28.6660, 77.2160 New Delhi 7001534 ycba_term_1930194 New Delhi 28.6160, 77.2160 India 7000208 ycba_term_1954297 India 20.0000, 77.0000 Malcolm Cormack, Concise Catalogue of Paintings in the Yale Center for British Art, Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, CT, 1985, pp. 232-233, N590.2 .A83 (YCBA) 995830003408651 583000 N590.2 .A83 (YCBA) 13422488 323 related to Morna O'Neill, Company Culture : British Artists and the East India Company 1770-1830: October 16, 2003-January 11, 2004, , Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, 2003, no. 4, V 1199 (YCBA) 9964004393408651 6400439 V 1199 (YCBA) 79457806 1720 related to Stuart Cary Welch, The British view of India : selected English paintings from the Paul Mellon collection, , American Federation of Arts, New York, 1978, N8214.5 I5 B75 1978 (YCBA) 9932985363408651 3298536 N8214.5 I5 B75 1978 (YCBA) 54243358 1905 related to 300055603 500303557 Yale Center for British Art https://britishart.yale.edu Yale Center for British Art, Paul Mellon Collection 300055598 Public Domain 300435434 https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/ 1117 300133025 Item 500303557 Yale Center for British Art http://britishart.yale.edu https://collections.britishart.yale.edu/catalog/tms:1117 oai:tms.ycba.yale.edu:1117 https://manifests.collections.yale.edu/v2/ycba/obj/1117 https://manifests.collections.yale.edu/ycba/obj/1117 IIIF manifest Yale Center for British Art 500303557 Yale Center for British Art
