The collection depicts public life and institutions in the town of Aleksandrovsk Post, convicts working under harsh conditions or in chains, and political prisoners. The photographs also show the daily life both of the Nivkh people, indigenous to the northern part of the island, and the Russian settler population

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph, titled 'Work of Hard Labor Convicts' by Ivan Nikolaevich Krasnov, captures a scene from Aleksandrovsk Post on Sakhalin Island during the late 19th century. The image offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of this Russian penal colony and place of exile for criminals and political prisoners. The photograph shows a group of convicts, dressed in tattered clothing and chained together, pulling a heavy cart. Armed guards stand watch, their guns at the ready. The convicts' faces are etched with the marks of hardship and toil. In the background, a group of men, possibly Nivkh people or Russian settlers, gather around a meeting or congress. Sakhalin Island, located off the eastern coast of Russia, was used by the imperial Russian government as a penal colony and place of exile. The collection of photographs taken on the island during this period provides valuable insights into the institutions and people that inhabited this remote and harsh environment. The photograph also illustrates the concept of 'Meeting of Frontiers,' where different cultures and societies intersected and interacted, often under difficult circumstances. The image serves as a reminder of the harsh realities of punishment and imprisonment during this period in Russian history.
