EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Russian ethnographer L Veniukov in the late 1890s, showcases a young Buryat girl from the Aginsk Duma region of Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia. The Aginsky Duma was a traditional assembly of indigenous leaders, and this image likely documents a formal gathering or ceremony. The girl wears traditional Buryat clothing, including a long, flowing robe with intricate embroidery and a high-crowned hat adorned with beads and feathers. She also wears a necklace made of bone and beads. The girl gazes away from the camera, her expression one of quiet introspection. The photograph is part of a larger collection of over two hundred images taken during scientific expeditions into the remote wilderness regions of East Siberia at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth centuries. These photographs offer a unique glimpse into the lives of seven indigenous groups from the region: Kets, Dolgans, Buryats, Yakuts, Even, Evenks, and Toffalars. This photograph, in particular, highlights the rich cultural heritage and traditional clothing of the Buryat people, who have historical and cultural ties to Mongolia. The image is a poignant reminder of the meeting of frontiers and the diverse peoples and cultures that inhabited the vast Siberian landscape during this period.
