A family portrait shot in Calcutta, India in 1936
Note
my white shoe-lace,
symbolic of the manner in which I inadvertently, but

annoyed
my mother.
She was dismayed by my lack of attention to details
on this occasion, given the expense of the photo session
and the time and planning needed to coordinate a family
trip into Calcutta. |
