Hindus of Patna

Portrait of 4 men in simple clothing during a break (presumably). 2 men are standing and leaning against the wheel of the wagon, 1 man is lying on top, half erect, the 4th man is squatting on the ground. The contrasts between the dark skin colour and the light clothing are particularly striking.
