Description
Tinted lantern slide showing a mother from Bankat, Motihari, with her two children. The mother wears a sari. She holds a small baby in her arms, and her older son stands next to her, looking up at her. They stand outside one of the thatched buildings in their village. This slide comes from a collection created by missionaries from Regions Beyond Missionary Union, an interdenominational Protestant evangelical mission working in northeast India (Bihar and Orissa) and Nepal.
