EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic presence of Khan Wang, a Mongol hailing from Kuldja. Taken by an English photographer in the late 19th or early 20th century, this image is part of a private collection that offers a glimpse into the diverse tapestry of humanity. Khan Wang's striking features and traditional attire provide us with a window into the rich history and cultural heritage of his people. As we explore this photograph, we are reminded of the intricate differences that exist among various races and ethnicities around the world. The photograph comes from "Living Races of Mankind" a renowned ethnographic work published by Hutchinson in approximately 1910. It serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation, capturing not only Khan Wang's individuality but also shedding light on broader narratives surrounding race and mankind. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness Khan Wang embodying his Mongol identity with grace and dignity. His gaze reflects wisdom acquired through generations past, while his clothing speaks volumes about traditions passed down through centuries. As we delve into this mesmerizing piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us appreciate its ability to transport us back to an era when exploration was rife and curiosity about our fellow human beings knew no bounds.
