Bukharan. Kievan. Tatar
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating ethnographic portrait captured by the skilled lens of Karlis Huns in 1862. This image is a precious gem from the first volume of "Description ethnographique des peuples de la Russie," an ethnographic masterpiece dedicated to Tsar Alexander II in commemoration of the millennium of the founding of the Russian Empire. The photograph showcases a Bukharan Tatar man, originally from the Bukhara region of present-day Uzbekistan, dressed in his traditional attire. The Kievan Tatars, a subgroup of the Tatars, were a significant ethnic minority in the Russian Empire, with a substantial population residing in the southern and eastern regions. The album, published in Saint Petersburg, consists of 62 colored illustrations, including this one, providing a visual representation of the diverse ethnic groups inhabiting the empire. The first volume also includes a fold-out table listing the different ethnic groups and their populations in various cities, as well as a colored-coded ethnographic map. The second volume, comprised entirely of text, delves into detailed essays about the history, culture, language, and other aspects of the ethnic groups of the empire, reflecting the state of anthropological and historical knowledge of the 1860s. Gustav-Fedor Pauli, a German ethnographer who immigrated to Russia, was the mastermind behind this groundbreaking work. The photograph by Huns is a testament to the extensive research and documentation undertaken by Pauli and his team to preserve and showcase the rich cultural heritage of the Russian Empire. This image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a valuable record of the Bukharan Tatar people and their traditional attire.
