These various photographic mediums take us on a journey from colonial studies of Indian women in the 19th century, to private studio portraits from the early 20th century, and then to iconic and glamorous photographs of Bollywood actresses from the 40s and 50s. The exhibition therefore offers a unique insight into the social and cultural milieu of one of the most renowned periods of Indian history, whilst.investigating the function of the photographic medium during this time
