EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases two porcelain figures from The Peoples of Russia series, dating back to the late 19th century. The figure on the left represents a peasant woman from Kaluga, while the one on the right depicts an Ostyak from Obdorsk. Both figurines were crafted by the Russian School in the renowned Gardner Porcelain Factory. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of these delicate creations. Placed side by side against a plain white background, they stand as silent witnesses to a time long gone. Their attire reflects their social status - both are dressed in traditional Russian garments, with coats draped over their shoulders. These figurines serve as powerful representations of poverty and hardship that plagued Russia during this era. They symbolize not only material destitution but also societal oppression faced by those belonging to lower classes. As we gaze upon these porcelain sculptures, we are transported back in time to witness a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people who struggled for survival amidst challenging circumstances. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of history's complexities and invites contemplation about social issues that persist even today. Captured beautifully through studio photography techniques, this image highlights not only the artistic value of these figurines but also their significance as social commentaries on class divisions within Russian society during late 19th-century Russia.
