BREATHTAKING images of India through the lens of famed photographer Steve McCurry are on display at an exhibition in New York.
McCurry is well known for his portrait of the “Afghan Girl” with piercing green eyes that appeared on a 1985 edition of National Geographic.
The India images now on display showcase the country’s beautiful natural landscapes, everyday life, historical sites and spirituality.
“This selection of photographs, spanning over three decades, is representative of McCurry’s insightful portrayal of everyday Indian life,” the exhibition’s co-curator, Lia Zaaloff, said.
“Steve McCurry’s first trip to India and neighbouring countries in 1978 provided inspiration and subject matter that catapulted his career.
