EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating image from the ethnographic album "Description ethnographique des peuples de la Russie," or "Ethnographic Description of the Peoples of Russia," created by Karl Fiale under the direction of Gustav-Fedor Pauli. Published in Saint Petersburg in 1862, this two-volume work was commissioned by Tsar Alexander II to mark the millennium of the founding of the Russian Empire. The album consists of 62 color illustrations, each depicting various ethnic groups from across the Russian Empire in their traditional attire. This particular image, Sheet 21, showcases the Gypsies, an ethnic group known for their nomadic lifestyle and distinctive culture. The Gypsies are depicted in a lively scene, with men playing musical instruments and women and children engaged in various activities. Their vibrant, intricately patterned clothing and jewelry are on full display, reflecting their rich and unique heritage. The album also includes a fold-out table listing the different ethnic groups and the size of their populations in the cities of the empire, as well as a colored-coded ethnographic map that shows which groups inhabited which parts of the empire. Volume 2 of the work consists of detailed essays, in French, about the ethnic groups of the empire, their history, culture, language, and so forth. As a testament to the state of anthropological and historical knowledge of the 1860s, this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the diversity and richness of the peoples of the Russian Empire during that time. Karl Fiale, a German ethnographer who immigrated to Russia, captured this moment in time with great sensitivity and respect, resulting in an enduring and captivating image.
