EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Ice Fishing, 1890," is an enchanting glimpse into the past of the Yakutsk Region in Siberia, Russia. The image, part of the "Views of the Yakutsk Region" album, showcases the daily life of the indigenous people during the harsh winter months. The scene is set on the icy expanse of a frozen river, where several figures are engaged in the traditional activity of ice fishing. The men, dressed in thick fur coats and hats, have drilled holes in the ice and are using fishing nets to catch their prey. The snow-covered landscape in the background adds to the serene and picturesque setting. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the indigenous people of the region, who relied on fishing as a primary source of food and livelihood. The use of fishing nets and the communal nature of the activity reflect the strong sense of community and cooperation that existed in the region. The photograph is believed to have been taken around the late 19th century, a time when the Russian Empire was expanding its reach into Siberia, and the meeting of frontiers between traditional ways of life and modernization was taking place. The image offers a unique perspective into the lives of the indigenous people of the region and their connection to the land and their culture. The photograph is part of the collection of the Irkutsk State University Library, which holds a vast repository of anthropological and ethnographic materials related to the peoples of Siberia. The photograph is a valuable addition to the library's collection, providing insights into the history and heritage of the region and its people.
