About this artwork
Lucknow, formerly the capital city of the famous princely state of Awadh, is now the state capital of Uttar Pradesh.
The Lucknow Residency - constructed by the Nawabs of Awadh between 1780 and 1800 - was taken over by the East India Company in the early 1800s and was subject to a terrible siege during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. I have visited the site in 2019, the ruined building of the Residency is now surrounded by lawns and flowerbeds, it… is a very beautiful and moving site.
After my return in my Delhi studio, I found an engraving picture of the Residency before the 1857 fight.
I made this painting sketch of the Residency, with pencil and markers on A2 paper.

Michel Testard wandering painter of faraway worlds
Born in Tokyo and raised in Japan and Vietnam, I later lived in Africa, the UK and for twenty years in India. These places were not stops on a journey but temporary homelands, each leaving their own colour and rhythm within me. I paint what has marked me: a bend of the Ganges at dawn, the mineral light of Ladakh, Icelandic wilderness, the twilight of Rajasthani bazaars, the meditative atmosphere of Indian classical music. At times the real shifts into the imaginary — Goan rooms opening onto the sea, murmuring jungles, humorous portraits of musicians, rajas and yogis. My style is spontaneous and expressionist, guided by intuition and shaped by colour, emotion and memory. I paint to honour the faraway worlds that continue to inhabit me.
