EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Buryat Girl" by I.P. (Ivan Popov), dates back to the late 19th century to early 20th century. It is part of a collection of twenty-seven photographs, known as "Peoples of Siberia," housed in the Irkutsk State University Library in Russia. The collection offers a rare glimpse into the everyday life, festivals, housing, and clothing of the Yakuts and Buryats, indigenous peoples of Siberia. The photograph depicts a young Buryat woman, dressed in traditional clothing, standing confidently before a plain wall. She wears a long, full-length coat, adorned with intricate patterns, and boots with high, rounded toes, known as carriage boots. Her dress, also patterned, is tucked into her boots, revealing the traditional Buryat footwear. The woman gazes directly at the camera with a steady, unwavering gaze, inviting us into her world. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Buryat people, who have inhabited the region for centuries. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the hardships and challenges faced by these communities during the 19th century, as they navigated the meeting of frontiers between Russia and Mongolia. The photograph's historical significance is further emphasized by its inclusion in the prestigious Irkutsk State University Library collection. The photograph is a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse cultural heritage of the world's indigenous peoples. It invites us to reflect on the past, while also recognizing the ongoing relevance of these traditions in contemporary society.
