How does Khuahwant Singh describe his grandfather ?
In The Portrait of a Lady, Khushwant Singh describes his grandfather from the latter’s portrait that hung above the mantelpiece in the drawing room. His grandfather is seen wearing a big turban and loose-fitting clothes in the portrait. His long, white beard covered the best part of his chest and he looked at least a hundred years old. Khushwant Singh also goes on to say that his grandfather did not look the sort of person who would have a wife or children. He looked as if he could only have lots and lots of grandchildren.
