EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Mongolian woman adorned with a traditional headdress, captured in the year 1928. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the already intriguing subject matter. The woman's elaborate gold hair decoration steals the spotlight, exuding opulence and cultural significance. This photograph is part of "Die Welt in Bildern" (The World in Pictures), a cigarette card album from 1928. The striking contrast between her vibrant clothing and the intricate metal headgear creates a visually stunning composition. Every detail, from her carefully crafted hairstyle to her traditional costume, reflects the rich heritage and customs of Mongolia during that era. It serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and uniqueness of their culture. Georg A Jasmatzi, A. -G. , based in Dresden, Germany, played a role in preserving this extraordinary moment through printing or distribution processes. Although we cannot ascertain Georg A Jasmatzi's exact involvement or intentions with this particular image, it stands as an invaluable piece capturing Mongolia's history. This photograph transports us back to early 20th-century Mongolia—a time when traditions were cherished and celebrated through attire and adornments like these. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of women who proudly wore such headdresses as symbols of their identity and heritage. As we admire this rare snapshot frozen in time by an unknown artist's lens, let us appreciate its historical value while recognizing its profound artistic merit beyond any commercial use it may have served throughout
