ABSTRACT
Introduction: using a wide range of illustrative sources (academic works, ethnographic and costume albums) of the second half of the XVIII – first half of the XIX centuries, as well as relying on the iconological approach, the article analyzes the works reflecting the appearance and life of the Ob Ugrians.
Objective: review and iconological analysis of images of the Ob Ugrians based on illustrated editions of the second half of the XVIII – first half of the XIX centuries.
Research materials: illustrated editions of the second half of the XVIII – first half of the XIX centuries. Results and novelty of the research: the theme of the representation of the Ob Ugrians in illustrated editions of the second half of the XVIII – first half of the XIX centuries are poorly studied. The relevance of the research in the context of ethnographic Ob-Ugric studies is due to the fact that until now there were no attempts of systematic analysis of images of the Ob Ugric peoples in illustrative publications of the second half of the XVIII – first half of the XIX centuries, which are of scientific value. The novelty of the research is connected with the consideration of transformation of images of the Ob Ugrians on the example of engravings by Ch. Roth and E. M. Korneev, which can be found in domestic and foreign editions of the second half of the XVIII – first half of the XIX centuries.
Key words: image, Ob Ugrians, Ch. Roth, visual ethnography, engraving, E. M. Korneev, iconological analysis, ethnographic album.
