EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a group of Spanish women adorned in mantillas, captured around 1928. The creator of this mesmerizing image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the already alluring scene. These elegant ladies are seen wearing traditional lace wimples with veils, which beautifully frame their faces and add an element of gracefulness to their attire. The photograph is part of "Die Welt in Bildern" (The World in Pictures), a cigarette card album from the 1920s. This collection was published by Georg A Jasmatzi, a company based in Dresden, Germany. The exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail evident in these cards make them highly sought after among collectors. Each woman exudes poise and confidence as they proudly display their national costume. Their pointed hats or headdresses further enhance the overall aesthetic appeal while representing Spain's rich cultural heritage. The monochromatic color palette emphasizes the intricate patterns on their lace mantillas, creating a striking contrast against their white garments. This timeless image transports us back to an era when tradition dress played a significant role in defining one's identity and sense of belonging. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at the beauty and elegance displayed by these Spanish women who effortlessly carry forward centuries-old customs into the modern world.
