專家說明

Comparative Literature:
A. Jackson & A. Jaffer ed., Encounters: The Meeting of Asia and Europe 1500-1800, London, 2004, p. 7

The exhibition catalogue for the Victoria and Albert Museum 2004 Exhibition Encounters notes that "In devising its panoramic wallpaper l'Indoustan, French wallpaper-makers Zuber drew freely from the Daniells' picturesque views of India. The design of this panel marries the great Nandi from the Brihadisvara Temple at Tanjore with a section of the famous frieze The Descent of the Ganges at Mamallapuram."
The whole series of Les Vues de l'Indoustan is fully illustrated in O. Nouvel-Kammerer,French Scenic Wallpaper, 1795-1865, Paris, 2000, no. 306.
