Colonists in the Country Side, 1924. Creator: Unknown
Colonists in the Country Side, 1924. The "Kuzbass" autonomous industrial colony was created in 1921. It was organized by American workers, who took on the obligation of inviting from the United States and Western Europe some eight thousand skilled workers and specialists to industrialize the Kuzbass. The Soviet government turned over to the colonists a number of Kemerovo mine shafts and an unfinished coking plant. To recruit volunteers to work in Siberia, a "Kuzbass Bureau" was opened in the middle of New York City, and an information bulletin began to be published in the United States. Between January 1922 and December 1923, however, only 566 persons arrived for work in the Kuzbass. The colonists included emigrants from America, Canada, the Netherlands, France, Australia, Jamaica, Indonesia, and other countries as well. Kemerovo Oblast Museum of Regional History and Folklife

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history from 1924, showcasing a group of colonists in the countryside of Siberia. The "Kuzbass" autonomous industrial colony was established in 1921 by American workers who recruited skilled individuals from the United States and Western Europe to help industrialize the Kuzbass region.
Despite efforts to attract volunteers to work in Siberia, only a small number arrived between 1922 and 1923. The diverse group of colonists featured in this image includes emigrants from various countries such as America, Canada, France, Australia, Jamaica, Indonesia, and more.
The photograph provides a glimpse into the lives of these early settlers as they gathered together for what appears to be a meeting or discussion. The men and women are seated attentively, embodying a sense of determination and camaraderie as they work towards their shared goal of developing the industrial infrastructure in Kemerovo Oblast.
This historical snapshot serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by these pioneering individuals who left their homes behind to embark on an ambitious journey to build a new life in Siberia. Their legacy lives on through this powerful image that continues to inspire curiosity about their experiences and contributions to shaping the region's development.
