content: The bulk of the photographs are from Lynch's fieldwork in India. Personal photographs depict Lynch with family and friends, often at holiday gatherings, weddings, and vacations. Lynch's fieldwork photographs contain images primarily from Agra and Mumbai. Included are images of slums in Agra and Mumbai, shoemakers in Agra, weddings, ceremonies, conferences, and parades. There are also prints used in his first book The Politics of Untouchability. The carousel slides are thematically arranged sets of photographs, presumably used for course lectures or conference presentations. 

The majority of the photographs are 35mm color slides. Additionally, there are negatives, 35mm negatives, and color and black and white prints. The negatives and sets of slides have been assigned a number in brackets by the archivist.
