EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Karagasy from Abanskova ulus, 1895-1939," is a poignant glimpse into the life of a young boy from the Abanskova ulus region of Siberia, captured by the skilled lens of Russian photographer L Veniukov during the late 1890s. The image is part of a larger collection of over two hundred photographs documenting the lives of seven indigenous groups from East Siberia: Kets, Dolgans, Buryats, Yakuts, Even, Evenks, and Toffalars. The photograph shows a mother and her two sons, standing outside of a log cabin. The elder son, identified as Karagasy, gazes directly at the camera with a curious and confident expression. He wears traditional clothing for the region, including a long, fur-trimmed coat and a shawl draped over his shoulders. The mother, dressed in a long, flowing skirt and a colorful blouse, looks down at her younger son, who clings to her leg. The family is surrounded by the rugged beauty of their rural setting, with a ladder leaning against the side of the cabin and the vast expanse of the Siberian wilderness stretching out behind them. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the rich cultural heritage and history of Siberia's indigenous peoples, and the meeting of frontiers between traditional ways of life and the encroaching modern world. The image invites us to reflect on the universal themes of family, motherhood, and the passage of time, while also offering a fascinating glimpse into the past.
