Reindeer-Herding Koryaks
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating chromolithograph image from the late 1850s, created by Ivan Dem'ianovich Bulychev during his expedition to Kamchatka, Siberia. The photograph, part of a larger collection in the Prints Division of the National Library of Russia, showcases the daily life of the indigenous Koryak people as they herd their reindeer in the harsh, wintry landscape. Bulychev, a member of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society, meticulously documented his journey across Siberia and the Russian Far East, capturing the essence of the diverse ethnic groups and landscapes he encountered. This collection, comprised of 64 finely drawn illustrations, includes scenes of towns and cities, monasteries, landscape, and the people of various ethnicities. In this particular image, two Koryak men are depicted seated on the ground, dressed in traditional clothing suitable for the cold climate. The man on the left wears a brown cloak, while the man on the right dons a colorful, patterned dress. Both men are shown in a meeting of sorts, possibly discussing the day's activities or sharing stories. Behind them, a group of reindeer graze peacefully, their antlers adorned with bells. The intricately detailed illustration offers a glimpse into the rich heritage and culture of the Koryak people, providing a valuable historical record of their way of life during the 19th century. The use of chromolithography, a popular printing technique of the time, adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning work of art and an essential contribution to the fields of anthropology and ethnography.
