This photo was taken by Amrita Saraogi, an undergraduate student in Anthropology. This photo was taken in Kolkata, India in January 2006 .

'This picture was taken in the famous potters' district of Kolkata, where most of the festival idols for the city, and beyond, are crafted. I was intrigued by the skilled hands of these potters which, with perfect dexterity, shaped and designed the numerous gods and goddesses that Kolkata worships.'
