EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures Labantsiksa, the shaman of the Khorintzi Buryats people of Siberia, in all her mystical glory. Adorned in a helmet with antlers, a leather dress embellished with bells, and a cape featuring three entwined serpents, she exudes an aura of ancient wisdom and spiritual power. Labantsiksa's hands hold sticks with horse-head handles, symbolizing her connection to the spirit world and her ability to communicate with otherworldly beings. Her gaze is intense and focused, as if peering into realms beyond our own. The intricate details of her attire speak volumes about the rich cultural heritage of the Buryats people and their deep-rooted traditions. Each element carries symbolic significance, reflecting a profound understanding of nature, animals, and the unseen forces that govern our world. As we gaze upon this stunning illustration from Peter Simon Pallas' travels through Siberia in 1812, we are transported back in time to witness the rituals and ceremonies performed by Labantsiksa for her community. She stands as a guardian between worlds, bridging the gap between humanity and the divine. This print serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of shamanism among indigenous peoples around the world and invites us to contemplate our own connections to nature and spirituality.
