Parsee of Bombay - From Bombay to Kosseir, The Red Sea,
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing 19th-century photographic print depicting a Parsee man, a member of the Zoroastrian community from India, dressed in traditional attire. The image is taken from "Illustrated Travels" by Henry Walter Bates, published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London around 1880. The Parsee man in the photograph is shown seated with a serene expression on his face, wearing a sherwani, a long coat reaching down to his ankles, and a chaddar, a white cloth draped over his shoulders. He is also adorned with a headgear, likely a turban or a pagri, and a headdress, possibly a jama or a safinia, both traditional Parsee headwear. The man's clothing and accessories reflect the rich cultural heritage of the Parsee community, which originated in ancient Persia and has a strong connection to Zoroastrianism. The photograph is a testament to the diverse and vibrant fashion scene of the 1870s, showcasing the unique blend of Indian and Persian influences in the Parsee community. The image, with its sharp contrasts and intricate details, captures the essence of the subject's identity and the historical context of the time. The location of the photograph is not explicitly stated, but it is believed to be taken in Bombay (now Mumbai), India, as indicated by the title of the print. Overall, "Parsee of Bombay: From Bombay to Kosseir, The Red Sea," is a captivating and valuable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and fashion traditions of the Parsee community in the late 19th century.
