Dragging Out a Sweep-Net - Fishing on Lake Zaisan, 1909
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph taken by Nikolai Georgievich Katanaev during his journey to Cossack settlements in the Stepnoi krai, now part of present-day Kazakhstan. The image is a striking representation of the daily life of the Cossacks living in the region, showcasing their traditional fishing techniques on the shores of Lake Zaisan. The photograph captures a group of Cossacks, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, working together to drag out a sweep-net filled with fish. The net, which is stretched out on the ground, is being pulled by several men, while others stand ready to sort and collect the catch. The reflection of the clear blue sky and the surrounding landscape on the still water of the lake adds to the serene beauty of the scene. This photograph is part of "Vidy territorii Sibirskogo kazach'ego voiska" (Views of the territory of the Siberian Cossack Host), one of three albums depicting the territories, culture, and way of life of the Cossacks in western Siberia and present-day Kazakhstan. The albums were created for and exhibited at the First West Siberian Agricultural, Forestry, and Commercial-Industrial Exhibition in Omsk in 1911. The photographs in the albums were taken in 1909 by N.G. Katanaev, the son of Colonel G.E. Katanaev. The albums were part of a collection of photographs assembled between 1891 and 1918 by the museum of the West Siberian Branch of the Imperial Russian Geographic Society in Omsk. This photograph provides a unique glimpse into the past, offering insights into the lives of the Cossacks and their connection to the land and natural resources of the region.
