EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of connection and compassion between two Vietnamese women and a young child in Annam, Vietnam, during the 1920s. Dressed in traditional eastern attire, the women sit on the ground, surrounded by an array of baskets filled with books and other worldly goods. The older woman, with a warm and gentle expression, reaches out to touch the child's cheek, while the younger woman looks on with a protective gaze. The image transports us back in time to a simpler era, where the sharing of knowledge and the nurturing of young minds were valued above all else. The presence of the books suggests that these women were educators or caretakers, dedicated to the betterment of their community. Despite the racial and cultural differences that may have existed between the women and the child, or between them and the Western observer, the bond they share is universal. The image serves as a reminder of the power of human connection and the importance of nurturing the next generation, no matter where in the world we may find ourselves. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to reflect on the experiences and stories of the people who lived in Vietnam during the 1920s, and to appreciate the enduring power of the human spirit.
