Ex-depute Striphtombolas: A Glimpse into the Past of Traditional Greek Attire, Circa 1910s This evocative photograph captures the image of an older Greek man, proudly dressed in the rich and intricate traditional attire of his homeland. The man, identified as an ex-depute Striphtombolas, exudes a sense of history and tradition as he gazes directly into the camera. The vibrant blue of his shirt, adorned with golden tassels, contrasts beautifully with the dark folds of his leggings. The shirt, known as a fustanella, is a quintessential element of Greek folk costume, characterized by its short pleats that are tied at the waist with a sash. The man's vest, or kalimotira, is also decorated with intricate gold embroidery, adding to the grandeur of his ensemble. The man's head is topped with a red fez, a common headwear in Greece during the early 20th century. The fez, along with the gold-embroidered belt, or zonaras, and the intricately designed shoes, complete the traditional look of this Greek gentleman. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to the 1910s and the rich cultural heritage of Greece. The traditional attire of the man in the photograph serves as a reminder of the country's rich history and the enduring influence of its folk traditions.
