Khumbu Old faces, 1960

I am grateful to Prof. Christoph von Furer-Haimendorf, Austrian anthropologist, who wrote first book on Nepal’s Sherpa people living below Mount Everest in Khumbu Region. He also captured many photos and made beautiful cine footage. This footage is great asset for the younger generation Sherpas to see my parents, uncles, aunts and many relatives who are no longer with us. This footage is a Sherpa wedding between 1957-61.
Many thanks to Prof Macfarlane-Abaya
