EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of daily life in Yenisei Province in 1911. Underwater fishing with ouds on the Angara River, a traditional practice that has been passed down through generations, is depicted with striking clarity.
The figures in the image stand stoically against the snowy backdrop, their faces obscured but their actions purposeful. The men are focused on their task, using ancient techniques to catch fish beneath the icy waters of the river.
The historical significance of this image cannot be understated. It offers a glimpse into a world long past, where peasants and Cossacks worked alongside high-ranking officials to sustain themselves in harsh Siberian conditions. The Krasnoiarsk Krai Museum of Regional History and Folklife has preserved this snapshot of history for future generations to appreciate.
As we gaze upon this vintage photograph, we are transported back in time to witness a scene that is both familiar and foreign. The meeting of frontiers between man and nature is beautifully captured here, reminding us of our deep connection to the land around us.
In an age where technology dominates our lives, it is refreshing to see people relying on age-old traditions to survive. This image serves as a reminder of our shared heritage and the resilience of those who came before us.
