EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past and explore the captivating interior of a traditional men's house from the Purari Delta in New Guinea, South West Pacific, as depicted in this evocative photograph from 1922. Part of the British Empire at the time, now modern-day Papua New Guinea, this image offers a glimpse into the unique cultural practices and living arrangements of the unmarried men of this region. The men's house, adorned with intricate mural decorations, serves as a communal living space and a symbol of their social and spiritual identity. The walls are adorned with an impressive array of shields, drums, and ornaments, each holding significant meaning and purpose within their community. The men, dressed in traditional attire, are seen gathered around what appears to be a book or a collection of books, suggesting a shared interest in learning and knowledge. This photograph, taken in the 1920s, offers a rare and fascinating window into the daily lives and customs of the people of the Purari Delta during this time. The racial and cultural diversity of the world in the 1920s is beautifully captured in this image, showcasing the richness and complexity of human experiences across the globe. The interior of this men's house stands as a testament to the resilience and creativity of the human spirit, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse cultural heritage that shapes our world today.
