About the Item

A fascinating 19th century view of Chinese Sumo wrestlers in a mountainous landscape Circle of George Chinnery (1774-1852) Chinese wrestlers in a landscape Watercolour 6 x 8½ inches excluding the frame 13½ x 15½ inches with the frame With an attractive washline mount George Chinnery was an English painter, active for almost all his career in the Eastern world. After leaving London in 1802 he worked in India until 1825 and then for the rest of his life in Macao, from which he made visits to Canton and Hong Kong. He made his living principally as a portraitist, but his reputation now rests mainly on the pictures of Indian and Oriental life and scenery that he made for his own pleasure.
