EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the late 19th century, showcases two proud Breton men dressed in their traditional costumes, a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Brittany, a historical province in the northwest of France. The men, with their weathered faces and strong, sturdy builds, exude an air of resilience and connection to the land. The traditional Breton costumes, with their distinctive blue and white striped shirts, known as "fraises de bois" or "strawberries," and the "gavots," or knee-length trousers, were once a common sight in the region. These costumes were not only a symbol of Breton identity but also served a practical purpose, as the stripes helped to camouflage the wearer in the marshy terrain. The Breton people have a long and complex history, with their origins tracing back to the Celts, Romans, and Normans. Over the centuries, they have maintained a distinct language, music, and folklore, which sets them apart from the rest of France. However, the 19th century marked a period of intense cultural revival, as the Breton people sought to preserve their traditions in the face of increasing French influence. This photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of the Breton people and their deep-rooted connection to their land and culture. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when traditional ways of life were still firmly in place. Today, the Breton costumes may no longer be a common sight, but the pride and heritage they represent continue to thrive in the hearts and minds of the Breton people.
