This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of a Paduang woman, also known as a Long-necked Karen. Taken in Mae Hong Son, Thailand, this image captures the essence of Southeast Asia's rich cultural diversity. The Paduang women are renowned for their distinctive long necks adorned with multiple brass rings. This unique tradition has made them an iconic symbol of ethnic identity and tribal culture in Thailand.

With an air of exoticism surrounding her, this rare sight draws us into a world where ancient customs meet contemporary life. Her face tells stories of resilience and strength while embodying the spirit of these remarkable people. As we delve into this visual journey through Asia, we witness not only the physical beauty but also gain insight into the challenges faced by these tribal communities.
