Description

On left of image: Two dolls dressed in modern attire of the Religious of the Assumption. To their right on the wall are framed portraits of the order's Superiors General. The first four wear the "old" habit; then the modern era begins. The present Superior General is from India and wears a sari for occasions that call for best attire.

Note the vaulting of the crypt beneath the chapel; this space is the home of the RA archives.
