Girl of Bokhara - Notes on Western Turkistan,
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing photograph from the late 19th century, featuring a young Bukharan woman adorned in traditional Central Asian attire. The image is taken from "Illustrated Travels in Central Asia" by Henry Walter Bates, published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London around 1880. The Girl of Bokhara, an ancient city located in modern-day Uzbekistan, is depicted wearing a voluminous, embroidered dress with intricate patterns and a matching headdress. The headdress, known as a gulab-kala, is a distinctive feature of Bukharan women's traditional dress. It consists of a tall, conical hat covered in white fabric, adorned with colorful embroidery and embellished with pearls and beads. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Central Asia during the 1800s. Bokhara was a significant trading center along the Silk Road, and its people were known for their artistic and craftsmanship skills. The intricate designs on the woman's dress and headdress are a testament to the region's artistic traditions. The image was captured by an unknown photographer, but it was likely taken during Bates' travels through Central Asia. Bates was a British author and traveler who wrote extensively about his experiences in Central Asia. The photograph is a valuable addition to his work, providing visual evidence of the region's people and their customs. The "Girl of Bokhara" photograph is a captivating reminder of the diverse and vibrant cultures that once flourished in Central Asia. It is a testament to the region's rich history and the enduring allure of its people and their traditions. The photograph is a precious artifact that continues to inspire curiosity and fascination among scholars, travelers, and history enthusiasts.
