Portraits of women and children of Rajasthan. In the countryside, the women of Rajasthan wear long skirts, a small bolero and veil with bright colors. They adorn themselves with silver jewels ( earrings, nose rings, necklaces, arm and ankle bracelets). They raise the children and participate in the rural works ( cattle, farming, wood and water tasks). Most of the marriages are settled and the place of women is by and at the service of their in-laws.
