Indian women wear bangles as a symbol of good luck and part of tradition. In certain families to this day, it is considered inauspicious, to have a married woman’s arms bereft of any colorful adornment. Green glass bangles are seen as a symbol of suhaag (husband).

















Hi, I am an amateur artist and I am trying to look for the photographer of this photo as I would like to paint this woman but do not want to infringe upon copyright. Can you help me with this info?
Thanks Christine
Hi Christine, I’ve had this image for awhile now. No idea who the photographer is! If you find out, please let me know!
Thanks so much for your reply. I don’t even know where to start but I really do appreciate your response. I really like your site. It is really well done.
Best Wishes
