EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "INDIA: GIRLS, c1922" takes us back in time to Bombay (now Mumbai), India. The image showcases a group of high caste Hindu girls, exuding grace and elegance. Their traditional attire, consisting of silk saris adorned with intricate jewelry, reflects the rich cultural heritage of South Asia. The young girls stand barefoot on the ground, symbolizing their connection to nature and humility. Their heads are covered with delicate headscarves, adding an air of modesty to their appearance. Each girl's expression carries a sense of innocence and curiosity about the world around them. Taken in the early 20th century by an unknown photographer using stereograph technology, this photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of upper-class Indian society during that era. It serves as a reminder of the stark social divisions prevalent at that time based on caste and wealth. The image captures not only the beauty but also highlights societal norms and values deeply rooted in Indian culture. It invites us to appreciate both the aesthetic appeal and historical significance associated with this period. As we admire this piece from Granger Art on Demand collection, let it transport us back in time while appreciating how far we have come as a society since then - embracing diversity and striving for equality among all individuals regardless of their background or social status.
