EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Parsees, c. 1870s" transports us back in time to the rich cultural heritage of the Indian Subcontinent. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases a group of Parsees - members of a distinct Zoroastrian community residing in India. The image captures a moment frozen in history, as these distinguished men proudly pose for the camera. Each individual wears traditional attire that reflects their Persian descent and unique identity within Indian society. Their distinctive hats and turbans add an air of elegance and sophistication to the composition. As we delve into this portrait, we are reminded of the diversity that exists within our global community. The Parsees' presence serves as a testament to centuries-old traditions passed down through generations while embracing their adopted homeland.
