Bhutias, Darjeeling
SOLD October 2000 |
Albumen print ca. 1880. Dimensions 7.5 x 9 inches (19x24 cm).
A very crisp, engaging print in mint condition, red-brown tonality. Mounted on a period album page with hand title in ink. The proximity of Darjeeling to Nepal and Tibet are seen in the clothing and features of these sitters, who are far from typically Indian.
