EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Mura Snuff-takers; A Trip up the Trombetas, 1875" takes us back to a bygone era in the heart of Amazonas, Brazil. The image showcases a group of Mura indigenous people engaged in their daily routine along the scenic Trombetas River. The men, dressed in traditional attire that reflects their rich cultural heritage, are captured barefoot as they indulge in one of their pastimes - inhaling snuff. With intense focus on their faces, we witness them taking part in this ancient ritual with great precision and reverence. The photograph's monochromatic palette adds depth and texture to each individual's body language and expression. It transports us to a time when life was simpler yet deeply rooted in tradition. Taken from Henry Walter Bates' Illustrated Travels collection published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London during the late 19th century, this print offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these native South American people. As we admire this remarkable piece of history preserved through photography, we can't help but marvel at how it captures not only an occupation or profession but also moments of leisure for these Mura individuals. This image serves as a testament to the resilience and beauty found within indigenous cultures across continents.
