EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in the daily lives of young Indians from Cerro de Pasco, a town located in central Peru. Gathered together for breakfast, these adolescents are depicted engaging in a simple yet intimate mealtime ritual. The engraving, created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, beautifully illustrates this scene as part of Les iles Chincha. The image showcases the cultural richness and diversity of South America through its portrayal of native Peruvian youth. Their faces reflect both curiosity and contentment as they enjoy their morning meal. A bottle sits prominently on the table, perhaps containing some traditional beverage that adds flavor to their breakfast experience. Published in "Le tour du monde" edited by Edouard Charton in Paris during 1868, this engraving offers us a glimpse into history while also reminding us of the timeless nature of shared meals and communal gatherings. It is part of the Selva Collection and has been preserved over time to provide insight into indigenous life during that era. Through this photograph, we can appreciate how food brings people together across cultures and generations. It serves not only as sustenance but also as a means for connection and community-building. This powerful visual representation invites viewers to contemplate our shared humanity while celebrating the unique traditions that shape our individual identities.
