This vintage photograph conveys the atmosphere of everyday life in the Caucasus at the turn of the XIX and XX centuries.
The image shows an Asian tailor at work, visited by neighbours or customers.
A simple street workshop, modest wooden benches, rolls of fabric, and copper utensils create a sense of warmth and comfort typical of traditional Eastern life.
Here we see the craftsman’s focus, respect for manual labor, and the unhurried rhythm of life in the old Caucasus.
