EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Traditional Lady of the Azores: In Honor of St. Michael, 1912. This evocative photograph captures a moment in time, transporting us back to the early 20th century and the beautiful Azores archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean. The image features a woman dressed in the traditional attire of the Azores, seated gracefully astride a small donkey against the backdrop of St. Michael's Church. The woman's costume is a stunning display of the rich cultural heritage of the Azores. She wears a long, flowing black cape, adorned with intricate white embroidery and fringes, which is secured around her neck with a large, decorative brooch. The hood of her cape is also adorned with embroidery and is pulled low over her head, shielding her from the elements. The traditional Azorean costume, also known as "traje típico," is a symbol of pride and identity for the people of the Azores. It has remained largely unchanged for centuries, reflecting the unique history and geography of the islands. The costume is designed to protect the wearer from the cool, damp climate and the harsh winds that are characteristic of the region. The woman's attire is completed with a simple white blouse, a long, full skirt, and a pair of sturdy, high-heeled shoes. She carries a small basket on her lap, filled with fresh produce or other essentials, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The photograph was taken in 1912, and the setting is St. Michael's Church, a historic landmark and a symbol of the strong connection between the people of the Azores and their faith. The image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and resilience of the Azorean people and their traditional way of life.
