The image of Hayu or Vayu offers a glimpse into the lives of the people of Nepal during this period, providing a unique window into their society and traditions. The photograph, taken during the Victorian era, showcases the wisdom and dignity of the elderly man, whose piercing gaze and serene expression convey a sense of inner strength and resilience. The intricate traditional attire he wears, with its vibrant colors and intricate patterns, speaks volumes about the artistic and aesthetic sensibilities of the Nepalese people during this time. Brian Houghton Hodgson's collection is a treasure trove of historical and cultural significance, offering a wealth of information about the people and societies of Asia during the 19th century.
