Description
Surjit Kaur and her husband, Gurdev Singh, sit on two plastic chairs drinking juice. There is a plastic table between Surjit Kaur and Gurdev Singh. There is medication, a glass of juice, and a biscuit container on the table. Surjit Kaur is wearing a light-coloured salwar suit with a matching chunni. Also, she is wearing gold hoops and bangles with a karhas on her right wrist. A karha is an iron bracelet that Sikhs wear as a constant reminder of a Sikh's mission on earth. Gurdev Singh is wearing a dress shirt and pants with a blue turban, which is a head covering. An unidentified young woman stands between them, holding a plate. Surjit Kaur and Gurdev Singh are in their village house in Punjab, India. The background shows the house's blue doors with white and green walls. The photograph has been edited to make it appear as if it has been framed in decorative gold motifs.
