Exterior view of St Jamess Church, Delhi, c.1836 (w/c)
Exterior view of St Jamess Church, Delhi, 1836 (c).
Watercolour on European paper, by a Company artist, Delhi.
The Anglo-Indian soldier James Skinner (1778-1841) was the son of a Scottish officer in the East India Companys service and a Rajput lady. Formerly an officer in the Maratha Army, Skinner raised two cavalry units for the British, later known as 1st and 2nd Skinner's Horse. Nicknamed The Yellow Boys for their flamboyant saffron-coloured uniforms, they were famous for their horsemanship and skill at arms. Skinner was well rewarded, enabling him to acquire a town house in Delhi and a large estate at Hansi, Haryana. He maintained a close interest in Indian culture and was an important patron of the arts, commissioning a number of paintings recording his life and exploits.
After being wounded on campaign Skinner vowed that if he survived he would build a church as an offering of thanks to God. He did this at a cost of £20,000 and it was consecrated in 1836. In the foreground the tomb of Skinners close friend William Fraser (1784-1835) can be seen. Fraser was an administrator in the Companys service and a major in Skinners regiment. He was also an artist and a collector of Company paintings. Fraser was assassinated in 1835 and later Skinner had his friends remains moved to the newly-built church.
