Four Bhutani Rickshaw Drivers Playing Cards
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative photograph capturing a moment of leisure and camaraderie among four rickshaw drivers from the Himalayan region of Bhutan. The image, estimated to date back to circa 1920, presents a rare glimpse into the daily life of these hardworking men during a time when Bhutan was still largely isolated from the outside world. The photograph shows the four rickshaw drivers seated on the ground, huddled together around a makeshift table. Each man wears a traditional Bhutanese hat, known as a gho, which adds to their distinctively ethnic appearance. In their hands, they hold playing cards, their faces focused intently on the game before them. The cards, worn and faded with use, suggest that this is a regular pastime for these men, a simple pleasure they find in the quiet moments between their long hours of work. The rickshaws, which are visible in the background, serve as a reminder of the livelihoods that sustain these men and their communities. The rugged terrain and mountainous landscape of Bhutan make transportation a challenge, and the rickshaw was a common mode of transportation for both locals and tourists. Despite the stark surroundings, the image exudes a sense of warmth and community. The men's relaxed posture and shared laughter speak to the bonds they have formed through their shared experiences and the simple joy of a friendly game of cards. This photograph offers a unique window into the past, providing a glimpse into the lives of these Bhutani rickshaw drivers and the culture of Bhutan during a time of great change.
