EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time - the world of Shariki, or Cart Pushing Coolies, in the 1870s. Taken by Felice Beato (Felix), this print showcases the resilience and determination of these hardworking men from Asia. In this image, we see a group of Asian workers laboriously pushing heavy carts filled with loads that seem almost impossible to bear. Their faces reveal the strain and exhaustion that comes with their occupation, yet they continue to persevere. These lowly paid labourers were an essential part of transportation in Japan during this era. The composition is striking as it highlights both the physicality and camaraderie among these manual labourers. The loaded barrows create a sense of movement within the frame, emphasizing their tireless efforts to transport goods across distances. Beato's photography skillfully captures not only their physical strength but also sheds light on the challenging conditions under which they worked. This photograph serves as a testament to their unwavering dedication despite facing arduous circumstances. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are reminded of the immense contributions made by individuals like these coolies who played vital roles in shaping societies through their relentless work ethic and perseverance against all odds.
