Footnotes

Provenance:
Ambika Dhurandhar, the artist's daughter.
UK private collection since 1995.

Dhurandhar has here used a specific model (probably a lawyer and family friend) for a fully-finished drawing of an Indian 'type' such as he illustrated in The Peoples of Bombay (published in Bombay, Thacker & Co., 1944).
