EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a minister of the Emirate of Bukhara in his formal dress, circa 1910. The image, taken by the renowned photographer Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky, showcases his pioneering color photography technique that involved synthesizing three photographs through red, green, and blue filters. The minister stands proudly in traditional attire, representing the rich cultural heritage of Uzbekistan during the time when it was part of the Russian Empire. His elaborate turban adds an air of regality to his appearance while emphasizing his status as a bureaucrat and official within the emirate. Prokudin-Gorsky's photographic survey on the eve of revolution provides us with a rare glimpse into this historical period. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness not only the beauty and elegance of traditional clothing but also gain insight into the social structure and power dynamics prevalent during that era. This remarkable photograph is now part of a private collection but remains out-of-copyright. Its presence serves as a testament to Prokudin-Gorsky's artistic vision and dedication to capturing Russia's diverse landscapes and cultures before they underwent significant transformations.
