EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Sinhalese Village Beauty" transports us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century Sri Lanka. Taken around 1890 by the talented artist Alfred William Amandus Plate, this image captures the essence of a traditional Sinhalese woman radiating joy and happiness. Dressed in a beautifully striped traditional costume, this graceful lady stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Asia. Her genuine smile reflects the warmth and contentment found within her community. As she looks away into the distance, we can only imagine what thoughts occupy her mind. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this portrait, evoking memories of a simpler time when life moved at a slower pace. The intricate details in her clothing showcase the craftsmanship that went into creating these traditional garments. This photograph is part of "The Hundred Best Views of Ceylon" collection published by Plate Ltd in Colombo, Kandy & Nuwara Eliya in 1910. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of life in rural Sri Lanka during that period. As we admire this remarkable piece from our past, let it remind us to cherish our diverse cultures and traditions that make up our global tapestry.
