Two original photographs of the great Indian thinker Krishnamurti whose main concern was education.

  • Two original photographs of Krishnamurti, one with Annie Besant in Ommen, Holland, for the opening of a spiritual colony called "Sterkamp".
  • 1920s.
  • Good condition of conservation.

Krishnamurti (1895 - 1986) was one of the most important Indian thinkers. Like Tagore, he also attracted large audiences all over the world, and education was always one of his concerns. He founded several schools in different parts of the world where children, young people and adults could learn together to live a daily life of understanding their relationship with the world and with other human beings. Elvis Presley was one of his famous followers.

In the early 20th century, there were already many people in the Netherlands seeking peace and a new spirituality, especially after the First World War, in which the Netherlands remained neutral. And when thinkers "from the colonies" such as Krishnamurti and Tagore came to Europe, they were very well received as bearers of some enlightenment and spirituality.

There are two unpublished photographs showing one of the leading Indian thinkers.
