This print titled "Dobo or Tree-House for Unmarried Women" takes us on a journey to the early 20th century, capturing a unique glimpse into the lives of native women in New Guinea. The image, taken by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown, is part of a private collection that sheds light on the diversity and rich cultural heritage of mankind. The photograph showcases a remarkable dobo or tree-house specifically designed for unmarried women within this indigenous community. It stands as a testament to their distinct customs and traditions, offering us an insight into their way of life during this period. The image was originally featured in "Living Races of Mankind" published by Hutchinson around 1910.
