Lucae" Big folded Map of Bengal Rare First Edition in Italian of William Bolts most important work on denunciation of the activities of the East India Company in the Indian region of Bengal published for the First Time in 1772 under the title "Considerations on India Affairs" and formed by two volumes. Vol 1 is dedicated to an excursus on history and costumes of Bengal while in the second he attacked the administration of the East India Company in Bengal; and in particular he complained of the arbitrary power exercised by the authorities and of his own deportation. The observations and experiences he records still offer a unique resource for scholars inquiring into the nature of Company rule in Bengal. William Bolts 1738–1808 was a Dutch-born British merchant active in India. He began his career as an employee of the East India Company and subsequently became an independent merchant. He is best known today for his 1772 book Considerations on India Affairs translated in French in 1775 and in Italian in 1780 which detailed the administration of the East India Company in Bengal which began shortly after their victory at Plassey in 1757. Throughout his life Bolts continued to propose and execute various trading ventures on his own behalf and in conjunction with various commercial and governmental partners. The ventures of individual traders like Bolts did much to spur governments and large corporations into the expansion of their own interests. Condition: Very good copy printed on strong paper.

Summary; Renown British painter and printmaker Howard Hodgkin has been a passionate collector of Indian paintings since his schooldays and his collection has long been considered one of the finest of its kind in the world. At times he has devoted as much effort to developing his collection as to his own work as a painter. The celebrated artist's full collection of great Mughal art is being presented for the first time at the Ashmolean Museum in an exhibition running from early February to mid-April 2011. The catalogue includes over 110 Indian paintings and drawings. ""You need things to look at things to affect your feelings and your intelligence and your heart"" the artist has said. Many paintings shown are recent purchases never before exhibited revealing how Hodgkin has constantly refined the collection over the years. The collection comprises most of the main types of Indian court painting that flourished during the Mughal period c.1550-1850 including the refined naturalistic works of the imperial Mughal court the poetic and subtly coloured paintings of the Deccani Sultanates the boldly drawn and vibrantly coloured styles of the Rajput kingdoms of Rajasthan and the Punjab Hills. Hodgkin's own art is collected worldwide in museums as diverse as the Tate and the Phillips Collection and Yale Center for British Art in America. In 2003 he was named by England's Queen Elizabeth II as a Companion of Honor. Hodgkin once said his collecting had affected him as an artist but ""Not in the way people think"" that collecting had made him ""Very aware of quality and increasingly demanding of my own work.""
