EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of traditional Borah culture in Bombay, India in 1890. The two Borah children are dressed in exquisite traditional attire, showcasing the rich heritage and customs of their community.
The intricate details of their clothing and accessories reflect a deep sense of pride and identity, as they pose confidently in a photographic studio. Their youthful faces exude innocence and curiosity, offering a glimpse into a bygone era.
The choice to have this image printed on double-weight paper adds to its historical significance, preserving it for future generations to appreciate. The photographer behind this stunning portrait remains unidentified, adding an air of mystery to the narrative.
As we gaze upon these young subjects from over a century ago, we are reminded of the diverse cultural tapestry that makes up India's vibrant society. This image serves as a valuable anthropological artifact, shedding light on the ethnic traditions and folklore of the Borah people.
Through this photograph from the Alinari Archives in Florence, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - two Borah children proudly representing their heritage amidst the bustling cityscape of Bombay.
