EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of two Women of the Red Karen, a subgroup of the Karenni people, residing in the Kayah State of Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) during the late 1910s. The Karenni are a Sino-Tibetan ethnic group, and this image offers a rare glimpse into their rich cultural heritage. The Women of the Red Karen are named for the traditional red clothing they wear, which is made from the bark of the jackfruit tree. Their traditional attire is adorned with intricate silver jewelry, which is believed to bring protection and good fortune. The women in this photograph are shown carrying baskets on their backs, likely filled with essentials for their daily lives. Their expressions are serene, reflecting the resilience and strength of the Karenni people, who have long faced challenges due to political instability and conflict in the region. The Karenni people have a rich cultural heritage, with a unique language, customs, and traditions. They are primarily agriculturalists, growing rice, corn, and other crops. Despite the challenges they have faced, they have managed to preserve their traditions and maintain their distinct identity. This photograph is a reminder of the diverse and complex history of Myanmar and the resilience of its people. It offers a glimpse into the lives of the Women of the Red Karen, who continue to live in the Kayah State of Myanmar today, preserving their traditions and maintaining their unique cultural identity.
