EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Bhutanese costumes from 1895. The artist, Pranishnikoff, beautifully captures the essence of this Asian culture through his detailed engraving. Featured in "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" written by Elisee Reclus and published by Virtue & Co. Limited in London, this image offers a glimpse into the traditional attire worn by the Bhutia people. In this group portrait, we see individuals adorned in intricate garments that reflect their rich cultural heritage. Each costume is meticulously crafted, showcasing vibrant patterns and textures unique to Bhutan. The direct gaze of these individuals adds an element of authenticity to the photograph, allowing us to connect with their world from over a century ago. Bhutan's stunning landscapes serve as a backdrop for this portrayal of its people's dress traditions. This monochrome print transports us back to the nineteenth century when such attire was commonplace in the country. Preserved by The Print Collector collection, this remarkable piece serves as a testament to both Pranishnikoff's artistic talent and Elisee Reclus' dedication to documenting diverse cultures around the world. Through this photo print, we are reminded of how clothing can be more than just fabric; it represents identity, history, and tradition. It invites us to appreciate the beauty found within different cultures while acknowledging our shared humanity across continents.
