"Choix de Vues de l'Inde" (Selection of Views of India) is a collection of engravings based on the works of William Hodges, an English landscape painter and one of the first Western artists to depict scenes from India. Hodges traveled to India in the 18th century as part of his engagement with the British East India Company, where he documented landscapes, architecture, and scenes of daily life through his paintings.

The collection, which translates to "A Select Collection of Views and Ruins in India," was published in the late 1780s and includes a series of plates that were engraved by various artists from Hodges' original paintings. These engravings were intended to provide the European audience with visual documentation and impressions of the Indian subcontinent, which was largely unfamiliar to them at the time.

Hodges' work is significant for its role in shaping European perceptions of India during the colonial era. His artistic style combined elements of Romanticism with detailed observation, and his depictions of India ranged from the grandeur of its ancient monuments to the picturesque qualities of its landscapes. "Choix de Vues de l'Inde" not only served as an important record of India's cultural heritage but also contributed to the broader discourse on Orientalism and the representation of "exotic" lands in Western art.

The publication of "Choix de Vues de l'Inde" was part of a larger trend during the 18th and 19th centuries, where illustrated books and prints of distant lands became popular in Europe. These works catered to the curiosity and fascination of the European public with the wider world, which was being increasingly accessed through colonial expansion and travel.

William Hodges' "Choix de Vues de l'Inde" remains an important historical source for understanding the early visual representation of India by European artists and the intersection of art, exploration, and empire. It is also a testament to the technical skill of the engravers who translated Hodges' paintings into prints that could be widely disseminated, thus influencing the European imagination with images of the Indian landscape and architecture.
