The fine hand-coloured aquatint showcases Lieutenant James Hunter's artistic talent and attention to detail. The image depicts a picturesque landscape with a group of men and four animals overlooking a stunning lake surrounded by lush palm trees.

A tent is set up in the distance, suggesting an encampment or temporary shelter amidst this natural beauty. Lieutenant James Hunter's artwork transports us to another time, capturing both the physical geography and cultural aspects of ancient India. The hand colouring adds depth and vibrancy to every element within the composition.
