Title
Two Buddhist monks, playing "chess" by John Thomson
Description

Two Buddhist monks, playing "chess" [perhaps `Go' or another board game?] in a dark interior, both wearing white robes. Three others at the table, the centre one of these, the oldest, wearing spectacles. Others, much younger, looking on from the edges of the room.

This is one of a collection of original glass negatives made by John Thomson. The negatives, made between 1868 and 1872, were purchased from Thomson by Sir Henry Wellcome in 1921.
