Other Information - Dates


Other Information - Dates: The date is derived from Richardson’s negative album No.4, the cover of which is marked with ‘Lhobrag 1950’. This album also includes some images taken on other trips during this year (eg: Talung/Reting). The batch development numbers of the contact prints for this and related images, 608-615, run sequentially and the images seem all to have been developed at the same time and were, therefore, taken in or around this date [MS 19/12/2005]
