EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by Lotten von Duben in the Tuorpon Sami village during the 1860s, presents an intimate moment between Widow Inga Pantsi and her granddaughter. The image, imbued with a sense of timelessness, transports us back to a bygone era in the Nordic region. The granddaughter, dressed in traditional Sami clothing, gazes directly at the camera with a hint of suspicion, while her grandmother, also adorned in traditional attire, protectively holds her. The color palette of the photograph is dominated by sepia tones, adding to the nostalgic and ethereal atmosphere. Lotten von Duben, a pioneering figure in Swedish ethnography and anthropology, documented the lives and customs of indigenous peoples in Sweden during the 19th century. This photograph is a testament to her dedication to preserving the heritage and traditions of the Sami people. The clothing worn by both women is a reflection of their cultural identity, with intricate patterns, vibrant colors, and practical design elements. The location of the photograph, the Tuorpon Sami village, adds to the authenticity and historical significance of the image. The village, nestled in the Lapland region of Europe, is home to a rich Sami heritage that has been passed down through generations. The photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving cultural traditions and the role of ethnography and ethnology in documenting and celebrating diverse communities.
