EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, titled "Hyder Buksh, Kumboh Sheikh," is an ethnographic treasure from the 19th century, taken from the series "The People of India: A Series of Photographic Illustrations, with Descriptive Letterpress, of the Races and Tribes of Hindustan." Commissioned under the order of the Viceroy, Lord Canning, this collection aimed to document the diverse cultural and ethnic landscapes of India during the British Raj. Hyder Buksh, depicted in the image, is identified as a Kumboh Sheikh, originally a Hindu who converted to Islam. The Kumbohs are an indigenous community residing primarily in the Meerut region of Uttar Pradesh, India. This photograph, taken most likely between the 1870s and 1900s, offers a rare glimpse into the traditional attire and lifestyle of the Kumboh Sheikhs during that era. The image showcases Hyder Buksh wearing a long, white, flowing robe, known as a 'kurta,' and a 'pagri,' a traditional headgear. His facial features, adorned with intricate henna designs, reflect the rich cultural heritage of the region. The backdrop of the photograph is simple, emphasizing the focus on the subject and his ethnic identity. This photograph is an essential piece of history, providing valuable insights into the ethnic and tribal diversity of India during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the unique cultural heritage that continues to thrive in India and beyond.
