EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print captures the diversity of racial types among the Malay people in the late 19th century. On the left, we see Dyaks from Borneo, hailing from both the northeast and southwest coasts. The image showcases their unique features and traditional attire, providing a glimpse into their way of life.
On the right side of the print, we are introduced to natives of Java - a priest, lady, and gentleman. Each individual exudes a sense of grace and dignity, with their distinct clothing reflecting their cultural heritage. The priest's robes convey his spiritual role within the community, while the lady's elegant dress hints at her status and sophistication.
Taken circa 1880, this historical photograph offers a snapshot of Malay society during this period. It serves as a reminder of the rich tapestry of cultures that make up Southeast Asia and highlights the beauty in diversity.
