A wedding group. Mekong Delta. Early 1930s.Although the photo is not too clear it shows a typical bourgeois group of that period. It is to be noted the only woman in the photo is the new bride. The men are almost all wearing traditional costume.
The house in the background was destroyed in the war against the French. If I understand the story correctly it was Cambodean merceneries in the pay of the French who carried out the job.
