EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enchanting image of a woman from the island of Crete, dressed in the traditional Hanoum costume of the Turkish occupation era. The Hanoums were the women of the Turkish ruling class, and their distinctive attire was a fusion of Turkish and Cretan influences. The woman in the photograph is adorned in a voluminous silk robe, intricately embroidered with floral patterns and sequins. She wears a long-sleeved blouse with a high neckline and a wide, flowing skirt, which is cinched at the waist with a thick, decorative belt. Her hair is styled in elaborate braids, adorned with pearls and gold beads. She carries a large, ornate umbrella, a necessary accessory in the Mediterranean sun. The setting of the photograph is a studio, with a plain backdrop, allowing the beauty and intricacy of the woman's outfit to take center stage. The soft focus and the use of natural light create an ethereal atmosphere, adding to the timeless quality of the image. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural history of Crete, a place where Turkish and Cretan influences have intertwined for centuries. It is a reminder of the beauty and grace of the Hanoum women, who embodied the elegance and sophistication of the Turkish ruling class in Crete during the occupation. The photograph is a precious document of a bygone era, capturing a moment in history that continues to fascinate and inspire.
