EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of Dolgans from the Yenisei province in 1925, standing proudly outside their tent in the remote wilderness of Siberia. The image is part of a collection that documents scientific expeditions into some of the most isolated regions of East Siberia at the turn of the 20th century.
The clothing worn by these indigenous people reflects their unique cultural heritage, with fur coats and traditional attire providing protection against the harsh winter weather. The photography adds a timeless quality to this snapshot of life on the frontier.
As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when nomadic tribes like the Dolgans roamed freely across vast expanses of snow-covered land. Their resilience and connection to nature are evident in their stoic expressions as they pose for the unknown photographer.
This image serves as a window into a world that few have had the privilege to witness firsthand. It is a reminder of the rich diversity and history found within Russia's vast landscapes, where indigenous cultures have thrived for centuries despite facing countless challenges.
Thanks to institutions like Novosibirsk State Museum, these rare glimpses into our shared human experience can be preserved for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
