A photomontage portrait of a standing man in Siberia
1880s
Cabinet card
Private collection of Sergey Maximishin
LL/111685
(Sergey Maximishin, 23 June 2021) It is ? ?ollage: the photograph taken in a studio is superimposed on a photo of taiga. Opening the sheepskin coat, the man shows the viewer a holster and a bag for valuables. He says: I am rich, I can take care of myself, and my home is the taiga. The photo was taken in Irkutsk, and these are gold-bearing places. I assume that this is a prospector.
