EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the commercial proposals between the Siriniris Indians and members of an expedition. The scene takes place in the village of Huatinmio, nestled amidst the breathtaking heights of the Caravaya valley within Peru's Andes mountain range. The image depicts a fascinating exchange taking place between two cultures. Indigenous Siriniris Indians engage with expedition members, organizing a trade system where knives and needles are exchanged for feathers of birds delicately strung on a sprig of vine and aras. This intricate barter system highlights the resourcefulness and ingenuity of both parties involved. Taken from an engraving by Paul Marcoy during his voyage through Quinquinas valleys between 1849-1861, this print was published in "Le tour du monde" in 1872. Edited by Edouard Charton and published by Hachette Paris, it offers us a glimpse into this unique cultural interaction that occurred over a century ago. Preserved within private collections today, this photograph provides valuable insight into historical trading practices while also celebrating the beauty of indigenous Peruvian culture. Through its composition and subject matter, it invites viewers to appreciate not only the stunning landscapes but also the rich tapestry woven by diverse communities across our world's history.
