EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a Sea Dayak family from Borneo, Southeast Asia, dressed in their traditional attire in the early 1920s. At the time, Borneo was part of the British Empire, and this image offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these indigenous people before the influences of Western civilization began to take hold. The family consists of a husband and wife, both adorned in intricate and colorful costumes. The woman wears a headdress made of feathers and beads, while the man dons a necklace, jewels, and bangles. Their toddler children, clad in simple loincloths, play at their feet. The family is surrounded by the lush greenery and grassy landscape, with the vast expanse of the sea visible in the background. The Sea Dayak, also known as the Dyak, Dayuh, or Iban people, are an Austronesian ethnic group native to Borneo. They are renowned for their skill in boat-building and fishing, and their traditional way of life revolves around the sea and the river. The intricate and beautiful costumes worn by the family in this photograph are a testament to their rich cultural heritage. This photograph offers a window into the past, providing a glimpse into the lives of the Sea Dayak people during a time when their traditional way of life was still largely intact. Today, many Sea Dayak people continue to live in Borneo, maintaining their unique cultural traditions while adapting to the modern world.
