He has captured a reserve and an innocence which is charming. I knew of the Indian connection and felt that there was something oriental about the clothing and the head bands. It is fascinating to read such an excellently researched article about a well known period in British Imperial history but where much less in known about the everyday life of the British people involved. The Ragamala exhibition displays Indian minatures with which I am similarly not familiar and have found to be equally delightful and fascinating. Thank you.
