EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the enchanting world of late 19th century Sri Lanka. Captured by Christian Wilhelm Allers in his renowned book "Rund um die Erde" this portrait showcases the beauty and grace of two young women from the Tamil community. Dressed in traditional attire with veils delicately covering their faces, Rosama and Sandenam emanate a sense of mystery and elegance. Their eyes sparkle with curiosity as they gaze into the distance, inviting us to explore their rich cultural heritage. The lithograph captures not only their physical features but also hints at their religious beliefs. The intricate jewelry adorning their ears and necks symbolizes devotion to Hinduism, an integral part of Tamil culture. Through this image, Allers skillfully combines artistry with documentation. His attention to detail allows us to appreciate every nuance - from the delicate patterns on their clothing to the soft lighting that bathes them in a timeless glow. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the diversity that exists within our global family. These young women serve as ambassadors for Ceylon's vibrant history and its people's unwavering spirit. Let this photograph transport you back over a century ago when Rosama and Sandenam graced Kandy with their presence – a testament to resilience, tradition, and enduring beauty.
