Summary

Author
Emily Eden
Description
English: "A hindoo fakeer" with long hair, cloak and walking stick stands by a rock from which water springs.

Fakeers are however sufi (muslim), while hindu holy men may be called Sadhu.

This lithograph was taken from plate 3 of Emily Eden's 'Portraits of the Princes and People of India'.

Eden incorrectly wrote: "A Fakeer is a religious devotee, whether of the Mahomedan or Hindoo persuasion; the person represented in the print is a Hindoo".
