French photographer Jean Marie Duchange is showcasing 34 photos of the Vietnam Central Highland region in the 1950s at an exhibition, which opened at the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology in Hanoi.
The exhibition running until January 11 2015, also displays the camera that Jean Marie Duchange used to take the photos of Central Highlanders and landscapes.
The photos were taken during his visits to the Central Highland region from June 1952 to July 1955 and were selected from nearly 200 photos that his daughter Évelyne Duchange and granddaughter Nadège Bourgoin presented to the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology.
Museum Deputy Director Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Duy Thieu spoke highly of the photo collection, saying they help visitors know more about daily lives of ethnic minority people in the Central Highland region, as well as their architectural art, traditional customs and religious rituals.
