EDITORS COMMENTS
Portrait of a Korean Forest Sawyer, 1909" is a captivating photograph taken by Vladimir Ivanovich Fedorov, showcased at the Amur Oblast Museum of Regional History and Folklife in Russia. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to the early 1900s in the Amur Oblast region of Russia, near the border with Korea. The photograph features a Korean forest sawyer, dressed in traditional clothing, with a serious yet contemplative expression on his face. He is shown from the head and shoulders, wearing a round hat and a long, buttoned-up shirt, with a thick, woolen vest and trousers. The sawyer's hands are placed on his knees, holding a pipe in one hand, while the other hand rests on a saw. The circular composition of the photograph, with the sawyer positioned off-center, adds depth and intrigue to the image. The sawyer's clothing and accessories, such as the intricate patterns on his hat and the thick, sturdy boots, provide insight into the traditional attire of forest workers during that era. This portrait offers a unique perspective on the meeting of cultures and the diverse occupations that existed along the borders of Russia and Korea during the early 1900s. The image is a testament to the rich heritage and history of the region, and a reminder of the hardworking men and women who shaped the landscape and communities of the Amur Oblast. The photograph, with its timeless quality and intriguing subject matter, invites viewers to reflect on the past and the enduring legacy of the people who lived and worked in this region over a century ago.
