Benares Varanasi India Burning Ghat Dead River Ritual Vtg. Photo 19thC.
This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows a cremation ceremony at a burning ghat on the banks of the river in Varanasi, India. People are gathered for the ritual, with a boat in the foreground and stone ghats leading to the water. Varanasi, also known as Benares, is a sacred city for Hindus, and its ghats along the Ganges River are central to religious life and death rituals, believed to grant moksha (liberation from the cycle of rebirth).
