Gosavi (Ascetic)

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A very early postcard printed in India. Gosavi is a Marathi word that refers to someone who has renounced worldly pleasures and wears garments of the "brick-dust" color shown here. Interestingly one version of this card seems to have had the wanderings of an ascetic in mind – sent or sold by R.M. Eckert in Veyangoda, Ceylon (blind stamp, verso), it was mailed on the 8th of March 1901 from Tuticorin, India to a "Prof. Moriz Lowery Esq, 1245 Garden Str., Hoboken, New York."
