EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "A group of Kol girls, 1902" captures the essence of a bygone era. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Bourne & Shepherd, renowned for their remarkable portrayal of diverse cultures. These young Kol girls stand proudly in their traditional attire, showcasing the rich heritage of India's indigenous communities. The image transports us to early 20th century Hindoostan (India), where these beautiful children exude innocence and charm. Their vibrant costumes reflect the distinct ethnicity and customs prevalent in that region during that time. One can't help but notice the impeccable attention to detail as each girl carries a basket on her head with utmost grace. Seated gracefully on the ground, they create an enchanting tableau against a monochrome backdrop. This group portrait not only documents their individuality but also represents unity within diversity—a testament to India's multicultural fabric. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a window into history—an opportunity to appreciate the beauty and resilience of these young souls who carried both tradition and hope on their shoulders. Thanks to The Living Races of Mankind series published by Hutchinson & Co. , London in 1902, we are fortunate enough to witness this timeless moment frozen in time. Let this print be a reminder that every culture has its own story worth preserving; it is through such images that we can celebrate our shared humanity while cherishing our unique identities.
