Summary

Description
English: A Pandit Woman by Pandit Vishwanath, 1920.

"Kashmir women do not have a working dress. This one has been squatting on a filthy bank cleaning her greasy pots with mud whilst wearing all her gold and silver and precious stones. She has no trinket box at home nor any place to store anything, so besides wearing all her clothes and valuables she has both pockets full, and tucked into her sash a handkerchief, knife, comb and snuff-box, and in the fold of her sleeves snuff and sugar in screws of paper, a needle and cotton and various other things."

- Cecil Earle Tyndale-Biscoe from the book 'Kashmir in Sunlight & Shade'
