EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Interior of a Yurt in a Koryak Permanent Settlement," was captured by Russian explorer Ivan Dem'ianovich Bulychev during his expedition to Kamchatka in the 1850s. The photograph is part of a larger collection of 64 finely drawn illustrations, bound together in an album documenting Bulychev's journey across Siberia and the Russian Far East. The scene depicts the interior of a traditional Koryak yurt, a portable, round tent used by the indigenous people of the region. The yurt is filled with a group of Koryak men, some seated on a bench around a campfire, while others are hanging blankets or climbing the pole in the center of the tent. The interior is adorned with colorful decorations, and a large, intricately patterned blanket covers the floor. The image offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of the Koryak people during the 19th century. The men appear to be engaged in various activities, from resting to preparing their camp, showcasing the versatility and adaptability of their way of life. The campfire adds a warm, inviting glow to the scene, creating a sense of community and connection. Bulychev's album, which is now part of the collections at the National Library of Russia, provides a valuable record of the diverse cultures and landscapes of Siberia and the Russian Far East during a time of exploration and expansion. This image, in particular, offers a poignant reminder of the rich heritage and traditions of the indigenous peoples who inhabited these lands long before the arrival of European settlers.
