EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sooreende, Javanese" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment in time when cultural diversity was being celebrated and studied. The American photographer behind this image beautifully portrays the variety of costumes, contrasts, and racial features found across the globe. The subject of this photograph is Sooreende, a Javanese individual whose striking appearance showcases their unique ethnic identity. Their full head of hair and traditional clothing provide an ethnographic study into the rich culture of Java during that era. Displayed as an illustration for Professor F. W. Putnam's book on Portrait Types of the Midway Plaisance, this image invites viewers to explore different types of people from around the world through photography. It serves as a reminder that even in late 19th-century society, there was an appreciation for understanding and appreciating diverse cultures. As we gaze upon Sooreende's portrait today, it offers us a glimpse into history while also highlighting how far we have come in our global understanding and acceptance. This photograph captures not only a beautiful face but also represents an important milestone in ethnography and photographic documentation. With its impeccable composition and attention to detail, this print by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistry involved in early photography as well as its invaluable role in preserving our shared human heritage.
