EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the lives of Kalmouk nomads in their traditional yurt. The image showcases an intimate scene, where a group of Russian nomads are gathered inside their portable dwelling. The yurt stands as a symbol of their unique lifestyle, reflecting both practicality and cultural heritage. Its circular shape represents unity and harmony with nature, while its intricate design hints at the rich artistic traditions of these nomadic people. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the warmth emanating from the central hearth that provided comfort during harsh winters on the vast steppes. The Kalmouks' attire speaks volumes about their identity and connection to both Asian and Russian cultures. Their garments are adorned with vibrant patterns and textures, showcasing skilled craftsmanship passed down through generations. This fusion of styles reflects the diverse influences shaping their way of life. Through Leonard de Selva's lens, we witness a moment captured forever; it is an invitation to explore not only this particular community but also our own understanding of human history and diversity. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in times long past, there were individuals who lived differently than ourselves - embracing mobility rather than permanence - yet finding beauty and purpose within their chosen path.
