EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the vibrant city of Thessaloniki, Greece, circa 1910s, showcases a group of Albanian men and women dressed in their traditional costumes as they leisurely stroll down a bustling street. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonica or Thessalonika, is a melting pot of diverse cultures, and the Albanian community has played a significant role in the city's rich history. The Albanian men in this image wear long, flowing shirts, often adorned with intricate embroidery, and wide-legged trousers. Their heads are covered with a red fez, a traditional hat that was popular in the Balkans during the Ottoman era. The women, on the other hand, wear long, flowing skirts, often with intricate patterns and pleats, and colorful headscarves. Their arms are adorned with bangles, and they carry various household items, such as baskets and jugs. The pedestrian street in the background is filled with activity, as people go about their daily business. Horse-drawn carts and street vendors can be seen in the distance, adding to the lively atmosphere. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique cultural heritage of Thessaloniki's Albanian community during a time when various ethnic groups coexisted harmoniously. Thessaloniki, located in northern Greece, has a long and complex history, with influences from the Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, and various European powers.
