EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured photo print, titled "Indian Natives: Postman" captures the essence of Indian culture in the 19th century. Taken by an Indian photographer and now part of a private collection, this image offers a glimpse into the diverse occupations and people that shaped India's history. The postman depicted here stands proudly, representing one of the many types of native individuals found in Asia during this time period. His traditional attire reflects his role as a messenger, delivering letters and parcels to communities across India. The vibrant colours bring life to his surroundings, showcasing the rich tapestry of Indian heritage. This photograph was originally featured as an illustration for F M Coleman's book "Typical Pictures of Indian Natives". Published in 1902 by Times of India, it aimed to provide readers with insights into various aspects of Indian life. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness not only the postman's occupation but also gain a deeper understanding of daily life in India during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their extensive collection at Fine Art Finder. It serves as a testament to both the artistry behind early photography and its ability to capture cultural diversity. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate how images like these allow us to connect with our shared human history across continents and generations.
