1. Title: "A Young Sami Woman: Inga Kajsa Granström of Tuorpon Village, 1868" This evocative profile portrait captures the enchanting beauty and resilience of Inga Kajsa Granström, a 22-year-old Sami woman from Tuorpon village in the heart of Lapland, Sweden, during 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 showcases Inga Kajsa's striking ruddy complexion, a characteristic feature of the Sami people, and her traditional attire. She wears a colorful, intricately designed dress with a high neckline and long sleeves, adorned with geometric patterns and embroidery. A vibrant, patterned hat sits atop her head, shielding her from the elements. The portrait, taken in sepia tones, offers a glimpse into the rich heritage and cultural traditions of the Sami people in the 19th century. The clothing worn by Inga Kajsa reflects the unique and distinctive fashion of the Sami, which has been passed down through generations. The photograph is an essential piece of anthropological and ethnographic history, providing valuable insights into the lives of the Sami people during this period. It is a testament to their strong connection to their land, traditions, and the natural world. This portrait of Inga Kajsa Granström is part of Lotten von Duben's extensive photo album, which is now housed in the Nordiska Museet (Museum of Ethnography) in Stockholm, Sweden. The museum, founded in 1873, is dedicated to preserving and showcasing the cultural heritage of Sweden and the Nordic region. This image of Inga Kajsa, with her thoughtful expression and traditional attire, serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting and celebrating the diverse cultural heritage of the world.
