Mahatma Gandhi, wrapped in a shawl and seated with his head bowed among attendees at one of his prayer meetings, during the final months of his life (1947–48).

Gandhi's daily interfaith prayer meetings were central to his final campaign for religious reconciliation following Partition, and it was while walking to one such meeting, on January 30, 1948, that he was assassinated.

The photographer was his grand-nephew, Kanu Gandhi. Presented in a black wood frame with white matting.
