Kuchi shepherd, Srinagar, Kashmir, 1995 It is common for Kashmiri men to use henna dye on their hair or beards. As can be seen in this portrait of a Kuchi shepherd, they also wear clothes of vivid shades. A subtle mix of colourful fabrics surrounds the man’s slightly pink watery eyes, while his beard, like a flame, flickers from his chin. « A Kuchi shepherd in the Kashmir Valley migrates from the highlands during the fall. Often these nomadic herdsmen spend many weeks of the year looking for the ideal climate and grazing conditions for their flock. This man had colored his gray beard with henna. ».- George Eastman House Magnum Photos, NYC27327, MCS1996002 K126 Phaidon, Portraits, Looking East, Iconic Images, final book_iconic, final print_milan Looking East_Book Portraits_Book PORTRAITS_book final print_MACRO final print_Sao Paulo final print_Birmingham Untold_book 
00340_01, Lhasa, Tibet, 2000, TIBET-10009. Monk at Jokhang temple. MAX PRINT SIZE: 40X60 ‘There was something about his face,’ McCurry has said of this monk at the Jokhang temple in Lhasa, Tibet. There was some ‘ancient feeling, some kind of ancient truth there. I have never seen a face quite like his.’ He looks with intensity into McCurry’s camera, deeply aware of the transience of the moment. « The lines of time trace a deep personal history across this old monk’s face. It seems as though his has been a life of enquiry, a quest for a truth, on a higher level. He looks into the lens of the camera with a searching gaze. That is what attracted McCurry, as he visited the Jokhang Temple on his photographic pilgrimage through Tibet, sketching with his camera the various pathways to the Buddha. – Phaidon 55 Magnum Photos, NYC31836, MCS2000009K001 Phaidon,Iconic Images, final book_iconic, page 19.
