EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph, taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, offers a glimpse into the lives of the Samoyedic people of Siberia during the mid-19th century. The Samoyedic people, also known as the Sami or Lapons, are an indigenous group inhabiting the Arctic regions of Russia, Norway, Finland, and Sweden. In this image, several Samoyedic women are depicted wearing traditional costumes. They are dressed in long, colorful skirts made of reindeer skin, which are held up by wide, leather belts. The women also wear hose made of animal skins and snowshoes, essential tools for navigating the harsh, snowy terrain. Some of the women are adorned with intricate beadwork and feathers, adding a touch of beauty to their practical attire. In the center of the image, a shaman, the spiritual leader of the Samoyedic community, is shown performing a ritual. He wears a long, fur-lined coat and a headdress adorned with animal skins and feathers. In one hand, he holds a bow, while in the other, he plays a drum, believed to be an essential tool for communicating with the spirits. The presence of animalskins and feathers in both the women's costumes and the shaman's attire underscores the deep connection between the Samoyedic people and the natural world. This ethnographic image offers a valuable insight into the customs, costumes, and history of the Samoyedic people of Siberia. It is a testament to their resilience and adaptability in the face of the harsh Arctic climate and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to thrive in the region today.
