Légende
Historical Geography. 1900. India. The Brahmin, or priest, is the first of the four recognized classes of Hindus, and all priests are Brahmins, but all Brahmins are by no means priests. These three members of the priestly brotherhood, photographed in the hills near Simla, have exchanged their monotonous temple duties for the precarious life of the wanderer, but the orthodox take care that they never lack for food.
