This work is from the Re-take of Amrita series.
'To add to the biographical section in the Preface, Sir Sunder Singh Majithia, Umrao Singh’s younger brother, managed all the jagir lands given to their father by the British in Saraya, near Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh. Amrita often went from Shimla to her uncle's estates where, in the last two years of her life, she painted some of her most memorable paintings. This photograph was taken in Saraya around 1940 by Victor Egan. In my re-take I include one of the figures from Hill Women, a painting done by Amrita in Shimla in 1935. The other women flanking Amrita are Sardarni Kirpal Singh (left), daughter-in-law of Sunder Singh, and Kirpal Singh’s daughter Joji (right), a close cousin whose portrait Amrita has painted.'
