EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Studies of people, Colombo, Ceylon, 1898" takes us back in time to the vibrant streets of colonial-era Sri Lanka. Created by Christian Wilhelm Allers as part of his book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the diverse religious and cultural fabric of the country. In this snapshot, we see three men representing different faiths: a Roman Catholic Tamil man, a Sinhalese man, and a Muslim man. Each individual is adorned in traditional attire that reflects their respective religious backgrounds. The Tamil gentleman wears an elegant headdress known as Tscheddy Mam while the Singhalese man dons a lungi paired with an intricately wrapped turban. The Muslim man stands tall wearing Islamic clothing complete with a distinctive turban. The presence of parasols and umbrellas adds charm to this scene, protecting these gentlemen from the tropical sun while also adding visual interest to their surroundings. Their unique outfits are not only representative of their faith but also showcase the rich sartorial heritage prevalent during that era. Christian Wilhelm Allers' lithograph captures not just individuals but also serves as a window into Ceylonese society at large during the late 19th century. It reminds us of how religion played an integral role in shaping identities and communities within Sri Lanka's multicultural landscape. This remarkable print is truly an invaluable piece for anyone interested in exploring history through art and photography.
