Dedicated to Alexander II and published to commemorate the thousand year jubilee of the Russian Empire (the founding of the dynasty of Novgorod by the three Rus princes, Rurik, Sineus and Truvor). Pauly's book is suitably magnificent in size and scope, with plates of a consistently high artistic and technical quality. The five parts cover the different racial groups of the Empire: the Indo-Europeans (illustrated in 23 plates), the Caucasian (in 6 plates), the Uralo-Altaic (in 27 plates), Eastern Siberian (in 4 plates), and the short final section covers Peuples de l'Amérique russe (in 2 plates). Colas 2292: "L'ouvrage est très rare et c'est l'un des plus beaux sur les différents costumes des peuplades de la Russie"; Lipperheide Kaa 61; Rossica N-303; Sabin 59233.
