This captivating photograph, titled
EDITORS COMMENTS
Water-carrier, Samarkand," is a stunning representation of Central Asian life between 1905 and 1915, captured by the renowned Russian photographer Sergey Mikhaylovich Prokudin-Gorsky. The image is part of his extensive album, "Views in Central Asia, Russian Empire," which documents the rich cultural heritage of the region. The photograph depicts a man, dressed in traditional Uzbek clothing, carrying a large water container on his back. His headdress, adorned with intricate patterns, adds to the vibrant colors and textures of the image. The man's occupation as a water-carrier was a common sight on the streets of Samarkand, a city located in present-day Uzbekistan. Prokudin-Gorsky's masterful use of sepia tones adds to the timeless quality of the photograph, transporting us back to a bygone era. The image offers a glimpse into the meeting of frontiers, where the old and the new coexisted, and the traditional ways of life were still prevalent. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of people, as they went about their daily occupations, despite the changing world around them. Prokudin-Gorsky's work is an invaluable contribution to the historical record of Central Asia, providing a window into a world that is often overlooked in the annals of history. This photograph, in particular, is a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists in Central Asia, and the importance of preserving it for future generations." The Library of Congress in the United States is home to Prokudin-Gorsky's extensive collection of photographs, which offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of Russia and its neighboring countries during the early 20th century. The collection is a valuable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history and culture of this fascinating region.
