This photoreproduction, likely made before 1883, is a photograph taken by Alexandre (1855-1925) of a man described as "the chief of all the temples." The image captures the subject standing in a somewhat formal pose, his right hand extended forward as if gesturing. The photographic quality is somewhat grainy, characteristic of early photographic techniques. The photo likely served as a visual record of the individual and his position within the community. It's a snapshot into the lives of people in 19th century Asia.
