Company style, also known as Company painting or Patna painting (Hindi: kampani kalam) is a term for a hybrid Indo-European style of paintings made in India by Indian artists, many of whom worked for European patrons in the East India Company or other foreign Companies in the 18th and 19th centuries. The style blended traditional elements from Rajput and Mughal painting with a more Western treatment of perspective, volume and recession. Most paintings were small, reflecting the Indian miniature tradition, but the natural history paintings of plants and birds were usually life size.

  • « Company Paintings » (ou Patna Kalam, ou Kampani Kalam) désigne les peintures réalisées du XVIIIe au XXe siècle par des artistesindiens pour le compte des Britanniques, agents de la « Company » anglaise des Indes et, par extension, des Européens, avec des centres à Patna, Calcutta, Chennai, Delhi, Lucknow, etc. En général, ces œuvres se caractérisent par leur technique, bien différente de la miniature (mais majoritairement avec des formats de miniature), car elles sont peintes de manière plus large, à la gouache, souvent diluée pour imiter l’aquarelle. (fr)
  • De term Company Painting duidt de kunstwerken aan die tussen 1757 en ca. 1947 gemaakt zijn in opdracht van de Britse East India Company (EIC). De uitvoerders waren meestal Indiase schilders, maar soms ook Europese kunstenaars die actief waren op het Indiase subcontinent. Stilistisch waren de Company Paintings een mengeling van traditionele Indiase artistieke vormen en westerse conventies en technieken, zoals olieverf, perspectiefweergave, chiaroscuro en naturalisme.
