EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "Tipos de Cajamarca" offers a poignant glimpse into the lives of the people from Cajamarca, Peru. Taken by Carlos Kroehle between 1876 and 1902, this albumen print measures 12.9x9.6 cm and is now part of a private collection. In this image, we see a diverse group of individuals who represent the rich tapestry of life in Cajamarca. Among them is an infant held lovingly by their mother, highlighting the tender bond shared amidst challenging circumstances. The presence of a midget adds another layer to this composition, drawing attention to the unique experiences faced by those with dwarfism within this community. The photograph evokes feelings of both poverty and hardship that were prevalent during that era in South America. Despite these challenges, there is also resilience evident on their faces as they stand together as one united group. Carlos Kroehle's skillful use of photography allows us to bear witness to moments like these that might otherwise be forgotten or overlooked. Through his lens, he captures not only individual stories but also provides us with a broader understanding of Peruvian culture at that time. As we contemplate this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, it serves as a reminder to appreciate our shared humanity and recognize the strength found within communities facing adversity around the world.
