The photograph is part of the comprehensive series, 'The People of India: A Series of Photographic Illustrations, with Descriptive Letterpress, of the Races and Tribes of Hindustan,' published under the order of Lord Canning, the Viceroy of India, in the 1860s. The image showcases a group of Muslim dyers, who were an essential part of the vibrant textile industry in Delhi during that era. Draped in traditional clothing, the men are seen engaged in their work, surrounded by their tools and raw materials.
