EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Karin Nilsdotter Finnberg, a Sami woman from Sirka's village, at the age of 50, in the 1860s. The photograph was taken by Lotten von Duben during her husband Gustaf von Duben's ethnological expedition to Lapland in 1868. The image is part of Lotten's personal photo album, showcasing motifs from their journey. Karin is dressed in traditional Sami clothing, which includes a colorful, intricately designed dress, a hat adorned with beads and feathers, and a shawl draped around her shoulders. Her direct gaze and seated position convey a sense of confidence and pride in her heritage. The photograph is a valuable historical document, providing insights into the fashion and customs of the Sami people during the 19th century. The use of sepia tones adds to the vintage feel, transporting us back in time. Lotten von Duben's portrait of Karin Nilsdotter Finnberg is an essential addition to any collection focusing on anthropology, ethnography, and Nordic heritage. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of the indigenous Sami people and the rich cultural traditions that continue to thrive in Lapland, Europe.
