Zach, sorry to hear about the infringement.
Search FM for: copyright; infringement; licensing; damages
There are many threads on the topic.
There are two issues at hand - compensation and damages.
Did you previously registered your image with the US copyright office?... if not, my understanding is that may severely limit the damages you might otherwise be entitled to in the case of a ruling in your favor (that applies domestically, not sure about internationally).
Assuming not, you still have a case for compensation but pursuing it internationally would be expensive, I would think. I doubt if it would even make a difference if Harpers Bazaar India is a subsidiary of the US magazine, but I'm no attorney.
Good luck,
Chuck
