This Cabinet Card is an image of an Indian family posing for their portrait. Unfortunately we do not know where it was taken. The photo is also undated. We would guess that it was taken in the 1890s, but as the family wears traditional clothing, this is very difficiult to assess. Perhaps our Indian reader will have a better insight as to the date. The family looks like an affluent but not wealthy one. We can see many differences between the children in the photo. A boy wear jacket and long trousers (and he is also the only shod in the photo). We would guess that he attends an English school, probably the only child in the family to do so. Another boy wears only the lungi.
