This photo shows two brown horses standing side by side. The man in the background wears a hat and holds a rope. The horses look healthy and calm. Raja Deen Dayal took many photos of Indian life and high-ranking British owners. He worked when photography was new, around 1880s India. The photo labels name the horses’ owners but never the Indian servants. The Cleveland Museum of Art owns this picture.
