About the Artwork
This dignified portrait captures a Nepali woman in Darjeeling, richly adorned with ceremonial jewelry and traditional dress. Taken by the British photographer T.H. Paar—renowned for his meticulous documentation of Himalayan communities—this image offers a rare and respectful glimpse into late 19th-century Nepali culture. The layered necklaces, nose ring, and coiled earrings speak to a heritage of craftsmanship and social identity. With its formal studio lighting and soft background, the photograph combines anthropological value with striking aesthetic composition.
