Collector’s Edition – An Indian Lady by Thomas Hickey
This graceful 18th-century portrait, attributed to Irish artist
Thomas Hickey (1741–1824), depicts an Indian lady—possibly
Jemdanee, companion of William Hickey. Her serene presence, soft drapery and
delicate modelling reveal Hickey’s remarkable gift for atmosphere and intimacy.
Painted during Hickey’s years in Calcutta, the work reflects a rare cross-cultural
moment in Irish and Indian history. Now faithfully reproduced using museum-grade
materials, it allows today’s collectors to experience the subtle beauty of this
remarkable portrait in their own home.
