Artist's Comments

Street scene from Kashgar in western Xinjiang province, China, 2005

Uyghurs are members of an ethnic minority culture (their language is Turkic and uses Arabic script) in China who are very oppressed and politically repressed.

Daily DeviationMother of Old Town Kashgar by *CultureQuest: The muted complementary colors make a pleasing background and frame for the beauty of the subject's face. What a wonderful portrait! (Suggested by =ComeWatchMyArt and Featured by ^equivoque)

Great photo. As I know Uyghur Turks call the place as East Turkistan.

She's really pretty
I wouldn't have thought that she was from China though
