EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of traditional Armenian fashion as depicted in an 1818 publication titled 'A Book of National Types and Costumes.' The photograph features a man and woman, proudly representing their Armenian heritage. The man wears a long, flowing tunic, known as a chokha, which is secured with a wide leather belt. His outfit is completed with a woolen hat, called a khetskar, adorned with intricate embroidery. The woman, equally stunning, is dressed in a voluminous, floor-length dress, called a saroukhan, which is accentuated by a wide, ornate belt. Her hair is styled in elaborate braids, and she wears a headscarf, or paske, that is intricately embroidered with floral motifs. The couple's outfits are not only a reflection of their national pride but also a testament to the rich history and cultural traditions of Armenia. The photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the fashion and lifestyle of the Armenian people during the early 19th century. The regional diversity and unique clothing styles of this historic period are beautifully captured in this image, making it an invaluable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the history and culture of Armenia.
