The coloured engraving, created by the German School in the 19th century, is a part of a private collection that offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of this region. The image depicts men and women dressed in traditional attire, adorned with robes, turbans, and headdresses that reflect their unique identities.

From Turkmen to Uzbek to Khiva inhabitants, these individuals proudly display their national dress with elegance and grace. The clothing reflects not only fashion trends but also Islamic influences prevalent in Central Asia at that time. Notably featured are figures such as an Emir from Bukhara and a Dervish who represent important aspects of Central Asian society.
