Kazakh with a Golden Eagle, on a Horse with Yurts in the Background, Valley of the Arakan...,1911-13 Creator: Sergei Ivanovich Borisov
Kazakh with a Golden Eagle, on a Horse with Yurts in the Background, Valley of the Arakan River, a Tributary of the Chernaia Berel River, 1911-1913. From a collection of color postcards of the Altay, or Altai, Mountains region of southern Siberia early in the 20th century. In 1907, Borisov began his expedition in the Altay Mountains, which lasted until 1911. He took around 1,500 photographs during this expedition, which, upon his return to Barnaul, he presented to the public through the use of a magic lantern. The photographs depict views of nature in remote corners of the Altay Mountains and the Altay and Kazakh peoples indigenous to this region. Borisov offered the photographs to various European publishers for the production of postcards. Altai State Regional Studies Museum

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a moment frozen in time in the Altay Mountains of southern Siberia, showcasing the unique culture and landscape of the region. In the foreground, a Kazakh man sits proudly on his horse, with a majestic Golden Eagle perched on his arm. The traditional yurts in the background add to the authenticity of this scene from 1911-13.
Sergei Ivanovich Borisov's expedition to the Altay Mountains resulted in an impressive collection of photographs that offer a glimpse into the lives of the indigenous Altay and Kazakh peoples. Through his lens, Borisov captured not only breathtaking views of nature but also intimate portraits of individuals living in this remote corner of the world.
The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when nomadic lifestyles were still prevalent and untouched by modernity. It serves as a reminder of our shared human heritage and connection to nature, even amidst vast mountain ranges and rugged terrain.
As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness a meeting between man and beast against the backdrop of rolling hills and endless skies. Sergei Ivanovich Borisov's work is truly a treasure trove for those interested in ethnography, anthropology, and cultural preservation.
