The artist behind this masterpiece is WT Mote, who skillfully captured Clive's commanding presence in his uniform. The image takes us back to the year 1833 when Clive played a pivotal role in the Battle of Plassey. It was during this battle that he led British troops to secure Bengal under the control of the East India Company, ultimately establishing British rule over the region. As a result of his triumph, Lord Clive received significant rewards including an annual salary of £30,000 and an astonishing sum of £234,000. Clad in his distinguished attire, Major-General Robert Clive stands tall as a symbol of colonialism and imperialism. This portrait not only depicts him as a formidable military figure but also highlights his influence on trade and politics during that era.
