EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1895, in Kochi, India. The image showcases a group of Jewish women who resided in this vibrant city during that era. Their direct gazes exude confidence and strength, reflecting their unique cultural identity as Indian Jews. The photograph is an engraving from "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" a renowned publication by Elisee Reclus. This significant work provided valuable insights into various regions around the world during the late 19th century. Intriguingly, these Jewish women represent a lesser-known aspect of India's diverse religious landscape. Their presence serves as a reminder of the rich tapestry of faiths that have coexisted harmoniously throughout history within this vast continent. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timelessness to the portrait, allowing us to immerse ourselves in their world over a century ago. It is through such historical prints that we can appreciate the resilience and contributions made by individuals from different backgrounds across generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured by an unknown creator, it prompts us to reflect on our shared humanity and celebrate the beauty found within diversity.
