EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Lineynyy Cossack" and captured by A. Derzhanovskii in the year 1862, is an exquisite representation of the traditional attire and regal bearing of a Cossack from the Liney region of the Russian Empire. The image is part of the ethnographic album "Description ethnographique des peuples de la Russie," or "Ethnographic Description of the Peoples of Russia," published in Saint Petersburg in 1862. The two-volume work was dedicated to Tsar Alexander II and marked the millennium of the founding of the Russian Empire, which is traditionally traced back to the establishment of Kievan Rus' in 862. The first volume of the album consists of 62 color illustrations, including this one, depicting various ethnic groups from across the vast Russian Empire in their traditional dress. The volume also includes a fold-out table detailing the different ethnic groups and their populations in the cities of the empire, as well as a colored-coded ethnographic map. The album was the work of Gustav-Fedor Pauli (1817-1867), a German ethnographer who had immigrated to Russia. The second volume of the work is entirely text-based and provides detailed essays on the history, culture, language, and other aspects of the ethnic groups of the empire. This photograph, along with the rest of the album, offers a fascinating window into the diverse and rich cultural heritage of the Russian Empire during the mid-19th century.
