During the first Anglo-Burmese war (1824-26), Captain James Kershaw made fine sketches of the country. His views constitute one of the first series of naturalistic landscapes of Burma and the first large-scale coloured views of Burma. Like Joseph Moore, he was also an accomplished artist, trained to record what he surveyed. He survived the Burmese campaign, but died in 1839 in Afghanistan.
