EDITORS COMMENTS
This group portrait, created between 1870 and 1886, depicts four men hailing from the Transcaucasus region. The photograph is a drawing from an original cartes de visite, a popular form of photography during the 19th century. The men are dressed in traditional apparel from the Caucasus, a mountainous region located at the intersection of Europe and Asia, which was part of the Russian Empire during this time. Each man is identified by a label written in Russian above their image. The first man on the left wears a high-collared, long-sleeved woolen coat, a woolen hat adorned with a tassel, and a pair of trousers. The second man, in the middle, dons a similar woolen coat but with a shorter hemline, revealing a white shirt and a belt. His hat is also woolen, but it is more conical in shape. The third man on the right wears a long, flowing woolen robe, which is fastened at the waist with a belt. His head is covered by a tall, pointed hat, a common headgear for the people of the region. The last man on the far right is dressed in a military uniform, indicating his status as a warrior or a soldier. The men's clothing reflects the diverse cultural heritage of the Transcaucasus region, which was a meeting place of various ethnic groups and influences. The photograph offers a glimpse into the fashion and lifestyle of the people of the region during the 1800s, providing valuable insights into their history and traditions. This evocative image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Transcaucasus and the enduring allure of historical photography.
