This is an original 1929 black and white halftone print of the "Nightingale of India", Sarojini Naidu (1879-1949), a highly intelligent woman who, at the tender age of 12, topped the entrance exam for Madras University. Not only did she excel in her studies, she also took an avid interest in India's political scene, both acting as a freedom fighter and heading the Indian National Congress in 1926.
