EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Mountains of the Pamir in Eastern Turkestan: the Roof of the World (1874) 2. Description: This photograph, taken in 1874, showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Mountains of the Pamir in Eastern Turkestan, also known as the "Roof of the World." The image, published by the Illustrated London News Ltd, captures the rugged and awe-inspiring landscape that has long fascinated explorers and travelers alike. The Pamir Mountains, located in Central Asia, are part of the larger Himalayan mountain range and are renowned for their towering peaks, dramatic landscapes, and remote and isolated communities. In this photograph, the snow-capped mountains rise majestically against a clear blue sky, their jagged peaks piercing the heavens. The image also reveals the vast expanses of barren, rocky terrain that stretch out between the mountains, creating a stark and otherworldly contrast. The region of Eastern Turkestan, now known as Xinjiang, China, has a rich history and cultural diversity, with influences from various civilizations, including Chinese, Mongolian, Tibetan, and Persian. This photograph provides a glimpse into the untamed and wild beauty of this remote and largely inaccessible region, which was only beginning to be explored by Europeans in the late 19th century. The Mountains of the Pamir in Eastern Turkestan have long been a source of fascination for adventurers, mountaineers, and explorers, who have been drawn to their rugged terrain and the challenges they present. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring allure of the Pamirs and the sense of wonder and discovery that they inspire. 3.
