India: A Hindu sannyasi resting on a bed of nails, Varanasi,1907

Herbert Ponting's 1907 photograph is captioned 'a fakir in Benares' (Varanasi), India. However, it is far more likely this depicts a Hindu sannyasin since Varanasi is the holiest city in Hinduism where large numbers of ascetics gather.
