EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "PDC-A-004676-0003", we are transported to a world of rich cultural heritage and traditional beauty. The image showcases a stunning backdrop, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors that immediately catch the eye. At the center of the composition stands a mesmerizing female figure, exuding grace and elegance in her traditional costume. Every detail has been carefully thought out - from the clothing she wears to the headdress that crowns her head. The headdress itself is an exquisite work of art, reflecting elements of civilian, military, and religious influences. The woman's attire is completed by a delicate veil that adds an air of mystery to her presence. Surrounding her are other members of a group, each dressed in their own unique ethnic costumes, creating a beautiful tapestry of diversity. The photographer Zangaki has masterfully captured not only the physical attributes but also the essence and spirit of these individuals through his lens. This portrait serves as both an anthropological study and an exploration into folklore and ethnography. As we delve deeper into this photograph, our eyes are drawn to various objects scattered throughout - from pillows providing comfort to draperies adding texture to the scene. These subtle details further enhance our understanding of Arab-Berber culture while highlighting their connection with Negroid populations. Alinari's print allows us to appreciate not just fashion or clothing trends but also how they reflect population identities and nationalities over time. It invites us on a visual journey filled with wonderment as we immerse ourselves in this extraordinary display of tradition.
