EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a young woman from Kandy, Sri Lanka (then known as Ceylon) during the 1880s. Dressed in traditional attire, she wears a vibrant, hand-woven sari adorned with intricate gold border designs, a symbol of her ethnicity and cultural heritage. The sari is paired with a blouse and a petticoat, both made of fine cotton, typical of the region's climate. The young woman's expression is serene and confident, her dark eyes gazing directly into the camera lens, inviting us into her world. Her long, dark hair is styled in a simple yet elegant bun, held in place by a delicate floral headpiece. The background of the image is a lush, green landscape, suggesting the fertile beauty of the region. This photograph offers a glimpse into the early 19th century, a time when Sri Lanka was under British colonial rule. Despite the political and societal changes, the indigenous people continued to preserve their rich cultural traditions, including their clothing and customs. This ethnographic image provides a valuable historical record of a bygone era and serves as a reminder of the diverse and vibrant cultures that have shaped the world we live in today.
