EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time from 1920, showcasing the art of boat-making by a Selkup man. The Selkups, indigenous people of Siberia, are depicted here with meticulous detail and skill by artist A. G. Vargin.
In this image, the Selkup man is shown using traditional tools such as an axe to craft a wooden canoe. His focused expression and expert craftsmanship highlight the deep connection between the Selkups and their environment.
The vibrant colors of watercolor and gouache bring this scene to life, emphasizing the importance of transportation in the Siberian wilderness. The intricate details of the boat-making process provide insight into the rich cultural heritage of these native people.
As we admire this portrait, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of history frozen in still image form. The dedication and hard work displayed by this Selkup man serve as a reminder of the resilience and ingenuity required for survival in such harsh conditions.
Overall, this print serves as both a work of art and an important ethnographic document, shedding light on the traditional practices of the Selkup people during the early 20th century. It is truly a testament to their unique way of life and resourcefulness in utilizing natural materials for transportation purposes.
