Tinted lantern slide showing an older Indian man (possibly a Hindu sadhu, or holy man) standing on a Hindu temple walkway. His face and body are painted, and he wears a dhoti (a long white cloth) wrapped around his waist. This slide comes from a collection created by missionaries from Regions Beyond Missionary Union, an interdenominational Protestant evangelical mission working in northeast India (Bihar and Orissa) and Nepal.
