EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Calona, a Soudanese Baby Dancer from the late 19th century. Taken by an American photographer, this image showcases the variety and contrast in global cultures through its portrayal of different ethnic types. Calona's striking portrait offers a fascinating study in racial comparison, as her unique features and traditional costume provide insight into the world of ethnography. Her full head of hair and intricately designed dress showcase the rich cultural heritage she represents. Part of a larger series called "Portrait Types of the Midway Plaisance" introduced by Professor F. W. Putnam, this photograph serves as an illustration to highlight the diversity found within human societies. It invites viewers to appreciate not only Calona's individuality but also recognize how clothing can be a powerful expression of identity. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - one that encapsulates both beauty and curiosity. This photograph is part of a private collection but has been made available for public viewing thanks to Look and Learn / Rosenberg Collection. Bridgeman Images presents us with yet another masterpiece that transcends commercial use; it allows us to delve deeper into our shared humanity while celebrating our differences.
