Title as given by the source

The photographs record the dynamic world of students and teachers of the asram, across age and gender, the close relationship of the teacher and the student and a flow of life and creativity within Santiniketan. His photos are different from Arnold Bake’s, who recorded other aspects of asram life through his images. Bake recorded lives of teachers and scholars and their families; the international community; village life surrounding Santiniketan or the accidental encounter with the itinerant singer.
