William Hodges produced some of the earliest views of India by an English artist. Hodges had been draughtsman on Cook's second voyage of 1772-5, and oversaw the engraving of the plates for the published account A Voyage towards the South Pole and around the World of 1777. He then travelled in India under the patronage of Warren Hastings and these views are said to have inspired Humboldt to travel.
