About this recording

Title as given by the source
This photograph is from E. O. Hoppe’s book, Santiniketan; it was on the cover of the book. The photo was taken in 1929 and it struck me that one of the unidentified women could be Chitranibha Chaudhury. As we hear in this telephonic conversation on 12 February 2022, Chitralekha, has identified the woman with flowing hair and shankhaa (conch shell bangles), sitting on the floor, as her mother.
