EDITORS COMMENTS
This full-length portrait captures the enigmatic figure of an unidentified man from the late 19th century. Dressed in traditional attire, he wears a heavy cape and a sheepskin hat, both common elements of the Caucasus region's harsh climate. With a determined expression on his face, he holds a rifle at the ready, facing right towards the viewer. The photograph, taken between 1870 and 1886, exudes an air of rugged masculinity and the raw energy of the frontier. The man's clothing, consisting of a woolen cape and a hat made from the same material, was a common sight during this period in Russia's Siberian regions. The use of a rifle suggests that he may have been involved in hunting or warfare, two essential activities for survival in the vast, unforgiving landscape. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of people who lived during the Meeting of the Frontiers era. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of 19th-century apparel, costume, and fashion history. The Library of Congress holds this rare and intriguing portrait in its extensive collection, a testament to the rich heritage of human history and the enduring allure of the past.
