EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history from 1890, showing the process of sending peasant settlers to their place of permanent residence in Yenisei Province. The black and white image showcases the harsh realities of agricultural laborers during the late tsarist period in Russia. In this snapshot, we see a group of peasants embarking on a journey towards their new home, accompanied by Cossacks and high-ranking officials. The scene is filled with emotion as these individuals leave behind their familiar surroundings for an uncertain future. The horse-drawn sledge carrying the settlers through the wintry landscape symbolizes both hardship and hope. Despite facing poverty and social class challenges, these resilient men and women are determined to start anew in Siberia. As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by generations before us. Their struggles and perseverance have shaped the world we live in today. This collection of over four hundred images provides a glimpse into daily life in rural Russia during a time of great change. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared heritage and the resilience of those who came before us.
