About this work

A riverside view shows a pale stone terrace of steps descending to the water, flanked by arched pavilions and a tall tower on the right. Small boats with figures glide across the reflective river, while domed structures and dense foliage rise behind the buildings under a cloudy sky. William Hodges created this work, titled The Ghauts of Benares, in 1787.
