EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two Sikkimese men, captured around 1910. The image is taken from the publication "Views of Darjeeling with Typical Native Portraits and Groups" by J. Burlington Smith, published by Hood & Co. Ltd in Middlesbrough during the early 20th century. The photograph transports us to a time when Asia was still untouched by modernization, offering a glimpse into the lives of these Indian men. Dressed in traditional attire, they exude an air of strength and pride as they pose for the camera. One man stands tall, his direct gaze conveying determination and resilience. He carries a sword at his side, symbolizing both protection and power. His companion stands beside him, also dressed in traditional clothing that reflects their cultural heritage. The monochrome tones add depth to this historical portrait while emphasizing the intricate details of their garments and accessories. The image captures not only their physical appearance but also hints at the rich history and traditions embedded within Sikkim's culture. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry, it serves as a reminder of how photography can preserve moments frozen in time forever. This print allows us to connect with these individuals from over a century ago while appreciating their contribution to our collective human story.
