The artist himself, Robert Clive, is the creator of this remarkable piece. The letter holds immense importance as it reports major events that unfolded during that time period. It describes Calcutta's recovery and Lt-Colonel Clive's triumph over the army of Nawab Suraj-Dowlah on the outskirts. Additionally, it highlights the conclusion of peace and an alliance between forces. Displayed in vibrant color, this print brings to life not only the physical appearance but also captures the essence and significance behind each stroke of handwriting within this manuscript from near Calcutta.
