Back to collection Phil Borges Spirit of Place Collection - Pakistan
|
Tara, 80+
Bumburet Valley, Pakistan Tara still spends ten hours per day working in her cornfields. My interpreter told me that she was extremely beautiful when she was young and desired by many men. Her first marriage was arranged as dictated by Kalash tradition. Shortly after her first child was born she fell in love with her second husband. In the case of an “elopement marriage” such as this, the second husband must pay the first husband twice the original bride price. In Tara’s situation this amounted to forty goats. Collection: Spirit of Place - Pakistan Artist: Photographer Phil Borges Medium: black and white fine art photography collection Finish: Framed These beautiful black and white fine art photography of people portrait of indigenous cultures are the trademark of humanitarian photographer Phil Borges. All collections of Phil Borges' work are available at Hallmark Fine Art Gallery located in San Diego's La Jolla Cove. Gallery also has Phil Borges' award-winning photography books Tibetan Portrait, Enduring Spirit, and Women Empowered. Call 858-551-8108 for more information. |
