EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of an old Sami man from Finnmark County, Norway, dating back to the 1910s. The Sami peoples, also spelled Saami and formerly known as Lapps, are an indigenous arctic community inhabiting Sapmi, which today encompasses parts of far northern Sweden, Norway, Finland, and the Kola Peninsula of Russia. The Sami man in this portrait is depicted in traditional attire, wearing a warm and intricately designed hat, likely made of reindeer hide or wool, which is a hallmark of Sami culture. His clothing, consisting of layers to protect against the harsh Nordic climate, is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the Sami people. The Finnmark County, located in the extreme northeast of Norway, is characterized by its rugged terrain, vast expanses of wilderness, and extreme weather conditions. The Sami have lived in this region for thousands of years, traditionally relying on reindeer herding, fishing, and hunting for their livelihoods. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history and traditions of the Sami peoples, providing a window into their rich cultural heritage. The elderly man's expression conveys a sense of wisdom and strength, reflecting the enduring spirit of a community that has thrived in the challenging conditions of the Arctic.
