The Snapshots in Time Collection
Woman in Polka-Dot Swimsuit on a Balcony Railing, Kashmir, WWII CBI Theater Collection
During World War II, Allied servicemen posted to the demanding China-Burma-India Theater often traveled to Kashmir's cooler hill country for rest and recreation. This striking portrait, taken from a dramatic low angle, reflects the informal, artistic photography many servicemen pursued as a creative outlet during their leave. Project: 218051
