EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the strong and resilient spirit of Amund Persson (Menlos) Hunsi, a 64-year-old Sami man from Tuorpon village in Lapland, during an ethnological expedition led by his wife Carolina Charlotta Mariana von Duben and her husband Gustaf von Duben in 1868. Dressed in traditional Sami clothing, Amund wears a colorful tunic with intricate patterns, adorned with various decorative elements. His beard, thick and well-groomed, frames his weathered, yet expressive face. With his arms crossed, Amund gazes directly at the camera, his posture exuding a sense of pride and confidence. The portrait, taken during the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Sami people and their way of life. The image, captured by Lotten von Duben, is a valuable addition to the Nordic Museum's extensive collection of anthropological and ethnographic materials. Amund's direct gaze and the use of sepia tones add to the timeless and authentic feel of this remarkable photograph.
