CORMACK, NEIL (fl. 1814-1837)
Before going to India in 1818, Cormack had exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1814 and 1816. From 1818 to 1827 he worked in Bombay as a miniature painter. He paid a visit to Madras in 1823 and lived there from 1831 to 1837. Nothing is known of his whereabouts from 1827 to 1831 or after 1837. His brother, the Rev. John Cormack, wrote an account of female infanticide in Gujarat.
