AT the great shrines of India assemble votaries of different walks and stations of life and of different ages, the variety of their moods, features, and dresses giving a kaleidoscopic effect. In this fresco the artist has painted a motley group of such characters, and his success in the display of a keen sense of humour may well be appreciated. The drawing, on the other hand, is somewhat poor, and the colours insipid.
