Merchant estates of Kyakhta, end of 19th century. Creator: Nikolai Apollonovich Charushin
Merchant estates of Kyakhta, end of 19th century.
From a collection of 71 items (photographs and negatives on glass) made in the late 19th century and early 20th century by the famous revolutionary-populist and social and political activist N.A. Charushin (1851-1937) and by N. Petrov. Charushin began serving a hard labor sentence in the Transbaikal Territory in 1878. The collection illustrates aspects of Transbaikal history in this period, with a particular emphasis on the tea trade with China, which at that time was one of the main branches of the economy of the region. The photographs show various technological processes of growing and preparing tea, sections of trade routes, as well as views of China, Mongolia, Buryatia, and various towns and villages of Transbaikal, as well as images of local people of different ethnicities and nationalities. Several of the photographs, including one of the large and imposing Russian consulate, were taken in Urga, at that time the capital of Outer Mongolia (and known today as Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Merchant Estates of Kyakhta' by Nikolai Apollonovich Charushin, offers a glimpse into the prosperous merchant communities of Kyakhta, Transbaikal Region, towards the end of the 19th century. The image showcases the grandeur and opulence of the merchant residences, their well-manicured gardens, and the sprawling tea plantations that surrounded them. Charushin, a renowned revolutionary-populist and social and political activist, captured these moments in time through his lens as part of a collection of 71 items, including photographs and negatives on glass. Charushin began serving a hard labor sentence in the Transbaikal Territory in 1878, and this collection illustrates various aspects of Transbaikal history during this period, with a particular emphasis on the tea trade with China. The tea trade was a significant economic force in the region, and the photograph provides a visual representation of the wealth and success that came with it. The estates in the photograph are adorned with intricate wooden architecture, reflecting the unique cultural blend of Russian and Chinese influences. The tea fields, stretching out in the background, are a testament to the hard work and dedication of the local laborers. Charushin's collection offers a rare and valuable insight into the history of Transbaikal, showcasing the beauty and diversity of the region, as well as the lives of the people who inhabited it. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the rich cultural exchanges that took place between Russia and China during this period, leaving a lasting impact on the region's history and development.
