EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by the talented artist Charles Barbant in 1895, takes us back to a time when Persia (now Iran) was a land of diverse individuals. Featured in this group portrait are three Persian men representing different walks of life. In the center stands a nobleman exuding an air of regality, his traditional attire reflecting his high social status. To his left is a Dervish, easily recognizable by his ascetic appearance and long flowing hair symbolizing devotion to spirituality. On the right side of the frame is a mendicant, whose worn-out clothes and poverty-stricken expression tell tales of struggle and hardship. This image not only captures their physical appearances but also offers glimpses into their lives and beliefs. The presence of smoke rising from one man's pipe suggests that smoking played a significant role in Persian culture at that time. Through this remarkable engraving published in Elisee Reclus' book "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" we gain insight into the rich tapestry of religious practices, social hierarchies, and economic disparities within 19th-century Persia. Charles Barbant's skillful composition brings these Persian men to life on paper, allowing us to appreciate their individuality while highlighting the diversity found within this fascinating country.
