EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Timeless Emblem of Albanian Heritage: A Traditional Folk Costume from 1919" This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the essence of Albanian culture and tradition, showcasing a fine-looking Albanian woman adorned in her folk costume from the year 1919. The image, taken during a time when Albania was still under Ottoman rule, offers a glimpse into the rich history and vibrant heritage of this Balkan nation. The woman's attire is a stunning representation of the Mirditore style, a traditional costume from the northern region of Albania. The intricate embroidery on her long-sleeved blouse, or "këftedhollë," is a testament to the skill and artistry of Albanian craftsmen. The delicate patterns, which often depict floral motifs, are meticulously stitched by hand, reflecting the deep connection between the people and their land. The woman's skirt, or "flekë," is made of heavy, pleated fabric, which is typically woolen and woven in a checkered design. The layers of the skirt are held in place by a wide, intricately designed belt, known as a "qeleshë," which is often adorned with coins, beads, and other decorative elements. The woman's neck is adorned with several necklaces, or "kundër," made of silver and beads, which are worn as a symbol of wealth and status. The intricate gold earrings, or "kërkëz," and the delicate silver bracelets add to the overall allure of her traditional ensemble. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and richness of Albanian culture, which has endured through centuries of change and adversity. The woman's proud and confident demeanor exudes a sense of strength and determination, making this image a true treasure for anyone interested in the history and traditions of Albania and its people.
