Sinhalese woman

  • SLBilder said:
    Not at all a representative picture of a Sinhalese woman. The attire is not Sinhalese at all. Looks more like the attire of South Indian tribal women. Julia Margaret Cameron was known to dress up people in different attires and pose them to illustrate poetic or biblical themes with a psychological dimension. Cameron’s images were created as works of art rather than as documentary records.

    truly a timeless portrait and yet another time

Déjatch Alámayou / King Theodore's Son, 1868

  • Alan Denney said:
    "Although Queen Victoria subsidised the education (at Rugby) of Dejazmatch Alemayehu Tewodros, Captain Tristam Speedy was appointed as his guardian. He developed a very strong attachment to Captain Speedy and his wife. However, Prince Alemayehu grew increasingly lonely as the years went by, and his compromised health made things even harder. He died in October 1879 at the age of 19 without seeing his homeland again. Prince Alemayehu left an impression on Queen Victoria, who said of his death: 'It is too sad! All alone in a strange country, without a single person or relative belonging to him... His was no happy life'." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Alemayehu
