Show moreThe album collects portraits of men and women from various ethnic groups of the Northern Caucasus, such as Imeritians, Lezgins, Nogais, Circassians, Kurds, Khevsurs, Ossetians, Mingrelians, Karachays, Kabardians, and Abazins. Most of the scenes were taken in Georgia, especially in the Kakheti and Gurian region, as well as in the region of Kuba and in Vladikavkaz. Most of the time "auls" - that is villages - are depicted. Portraits show noblemen and noblewomen, families, mothers with child, military officers, and people performing everyday activities such as laundering, bread baking, carrying wine jars or looming traditional dresses, as well as musicians.
