EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1902 showcases the timeless beauty of a Persian lady. Dressed in traditional attire, she stands as a symbol of grace and elegance. Her colorful headdress and flowing dress reflect the rich cultural heritage of her Asian homeland. Religion plays an important role in her life, as indicated by her Muslim headscarf, which signifies her devotion to Islam. The veil delicately covers her face, adding an air of mystery and modesty to this enchanting portrait. The photograph transports us back to early 20th century Persia (now Iran), offering a glimpse into the lives of its people during that era. It serves as a valuable ethnographic artifact, providing insights into the customs and traditions prevalent in this country at the time. Her ethnicity is unmistakably Persian, representing one thread within the diverse tapestry of Iran's population. This image captures not only an individual but also represents a larger community with its own unique identity. Preserved through meticulous printing techniques, this lithograph has endured over a century while retaining its original charm. Its inclusion in "The Living Races of Mankind" attests to its significance as part of humanity's collective history. As we admire this print today, let us appreciate both its aesthetic appeal and historical value – reminding us that beauty knows no boundaries when it comes to time or culture.
