    Looks like a wealthy family staging a little play.

    A Christmas photo in costume? Seems to be a Christmas tree to the right.

    Nothing to do with India. Does appear to be a family having a bit of holiday fun. 1920s from shape of the tiara and the woman's/girls' hair cuts.

    Omg - it's time to get new Wal-Mart readers! After everyone said family play I looked at it closer - I am really embarrassed now!
    Sheesh - sorry.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    I love it! Even though it appears to be a bit faded, slightly torn, with some dirt visible on the back.

    What's the size? I don't think it has a lot of value, given the condition. But due to the nature of the image, I think somebody would want it. This is just the sort of thing I would buy, but right now I'm overflowing with photos and am starting to limit to just photos in very good to excellent condition. Somebody who is good with photo editing could use a flatbed scanner and photo editing software to restore this. It would look great!

    Looks like a stage play to me, not someone's home.
