EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Terry Fincher, we are transported back to the vibrant streets of Durbar Square in Katmandu, Nepal. The image captures a Nepalese market trader amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life, standing proudly outside a magnificent Buddhist temple. It is February 1961, and the mountain kingdom of Nepal exudes an air of mystique and spirituality. The market trader's weathered face tells stories untold as he takes a momentary break from his trade. With a cigarette dangling from his lips, wisps of smoke curling into the air, he seems lost in thought or perhaps reflecting on the spiritual significance surrounding him. His expressive eyes hint at a deep connection with both his surroundings and his own inner world. This snapshot not only portrays one man but also encapsulates the essence of Nepal itself - its rich religious heritage intertwined seamlessly with everyday life. The juxtaposition between ancient traditions represented by the temple's intricate architecture and modernity symbolized by smoking cigarettes creates an intriguing contrast. Fincher's lens skillfully captures this street scene in all its authenticity; every detail speaks volumes about Asia's cultural tapestry during that era. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a powerful reminder of our shared humanity across time and space – regardless of commercial interests or any specific company associated with it.
