Pakistani generations | 1970ies

silver bromide print, probably Pakistan, 1970ies

This is a rare 1970ies silver bromide print from an unknown adventurer who travelled Pakistan / Afghanistan in the 1970ies. The image above shows a rural family sitting in their habitation.  Intimate and authentic photographic images showing women living in Islamic countries have become very rare, especially since 9/11.

granny and grandchildren | ~1925

silver gelatine, ~ 1925

This mid 1920ies silver gelatine print shows an obviously experienced grandmother amongst her three grandchildren. Compare the left girl’s face with granny’s one – nice.
