EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life of a Sami family in the late 19th century, in the Arctic area of Sapmi. Located in the northernmost parts of Scandinavia and Russia, Sapmi is the traditional homeland of the Sami people, an indigenous group with a rich cultural heritage. The image shows a Sami couple, dressed in traditional Lapp attire, standing outside their simple yet cozy home. The woman cradles her baby in her arms, while their loyal dog looks on with curiosity. The rural and remote setting, with the vast, snow-covered landscape stretching out behind them, underscores the challenging yet resilient nature of life in this harsh climate. The Sami people, also known as Lapps or Laplanders, have a long and complex history. They are believed to be Europe's oldest continuous culture, with evidence of their presence dating back over 7,000 years. Traditionally, they were semi-nomadic reindeer herders, living in tepee-like tents called lavvus. Their culture is deeply rooted in their connection to the land and the natural world, with a strong emphasis on community, storytelling, and shamanistic beliefs. Despite facing discrimination and marginalization throughout history, the Sami people have managed to preserve their unique language, customs, and traditions. Today, they are recognized as an official minority in several European countries and are working to promote their culture and rights on the global stage.
