The image, captured by Elisee Reclus and published by Virtue & Co. Limited, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and religious practices of this Asian continent. Dressed in traditional robes that exude an aura of serenity and wisdom, these male figures emanate a sense of tranquility as they pose for the portrait. Their direct gazes seem to penetrate our souls, inviting us to explore the depths of their spiritual journey.

Each face tells its own story, reflecting years dedicated to practicing Buddhism and guiding others on their path towards enlightenment.
