EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time, transporting us back to a small indigenous village on the island of Formosa, now known as Taiwan, during the 1920s. The Japanese province, under colonial rule, is a backdrop to this scene of daily life. The image is filled with a sense of community and tradition, as adults and children of the tribe go about their day. The men, dressed in loose-fitting clothing and headgear, work together, while the women, adorned in intricate patterns and vibrant colors, tend to the young. The children, with curious expressions and playful grins, interact with each other, oblivious to the world beyond their village. This image offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these indigenous peoples, showcasing their unique racial types and tribal traditions, which continue to be celebrated and cherished today. The photograph, taken in 1922, serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists in the world, and the importance of preserving and honoring the diversity of people and their communities.
