About
Ferenc Zajti left for India in 1928. During his long journey to India, he visited all the regions where the descendants of the Scythian-Hun peoples lived. He also met Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore, who invited him to Hungary and spent four weeks in Balatonfüred. Zajti wanted to donate 140 pictures to Gandhi's museum in 1942. The Bridge of Damnation was exhibited in 1947 along with his other pastels of Hungarian and Indian landscapes.
