EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a social gathering at the residence of Dom Smith in Vladivostok, Russia, in 1899. The image presents a group portrait of an assemblage of individuals, mostly Danes, who were employed at the Great Northern Telegraph Company. Seated in the foreground, from left to right, are Mr. Dick, Mr. Rietzel-Nielsen, Eleanor Pray in mourning dress, and Sarah Smith. In the background, standing, are Jorgen (Bosse) Hansen and Dr. Robert S. Ivy. The setting of this social gathering in Vladivostok, a major port city in Russia's Far East, provides a glimpse into the rich cultural and historical tapestry of the late 19th century. The people in the photograph represent the diverse expatriate community that thrived in this region during this period. Eleanor Pray, dressed in mourning attire, adds a somber note to the otherwise lively scene. The photograph, taken by Frederick S. Pray, offers a window into the social life of the expatriates who lived and worked in Vladivostok. The men in the photograph, with their formal attire and serious expressions, convey a sense of purpose and determination. The women, on the other hand, exude an air of elegance and refinement. The photograph is a valuable historical artifact that provides insights into the lives of the expatriates who lived in Vladivostok during the late 19th century. It is a reminder of the interconnectedness of the world during this period and the diverse communities that existed beyond the borders of their native lands.
