EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1890, captures the essence of traditional culture in the Yakutsk region during the late 19th century. The image showcases a horse in a festive harness, adorned with intricate decorations, pulling a rider dressed in ceremonial attire. The Buryat people, an indigenous ethnic group residing in the region, are known for their equestrian traditions and elaborate costumes. The horse and rider are depicted in a serene setting, with the Lena River and its surrounding landscape serving as a picturesque backdrop. The horse's harness, featuring colorful ribbons, beads, and metalwork, reflects the rich cultural heritage of the region. The rider, dressed in a traditional ceremonial costume, wears a fur hat and a long, flowing robe, adorned with intricate patterns and designs. The photograph, part of the "Views of the Yakutsk Region" album, is a testament to the meeting of frontiers and the preservation of indigenous traditions in the face of modernization. The image, signed with the initials I.P., is a valuable addition to the collection of the Irkutsk State University library, and serves as a reminder of the anthropological and ethnographic significance of this period in history.
