Madras, goldsmiths
Portrait of 4 goldsmiths at work. The boy sitting on the left is blowing into the embers of a small furnace with a blowpipe. The man next to him is hammering on something and looking into the camera. The man next to him is holding a small pair of scales and is also looking at the camera. The boy on the right-hand side of the picture is also working with his tools. All 4 are Brahmins, recognisable by the sacred cord. The boys are wearing the characteristic shikha braid of an initiated Brahmin. The men are wearing turbans.
