EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant atmosphere of Albania's Kruja town bazaar, where a colorful display of Qeleshe traditional Albanian felt hats takes center stage. The image showcases the rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship that is deeply rooted in this Balkan nation. The Qeleshe, with its distinctive shape and intricate designs, represents an integral part of Albanian identity. These felt hats have been worn by generations as a symbol of pride and tradition. Each hat tells a unique story, reflecting the region it comes from and the wearer's social status or occupation. In this photograph, taken by renowned photographer Walter Bibikow, we are transported to a time when Albania was under communist rule during the socialist era. The bazaar itself stands as a testament to resilience and adaptability in the face of political change. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the bustling sounds of bargaining and laughter echoing through Kruja's narrow streets. It serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, culture thrives. Whether you're an avid traveler or simply appreciate world cultures, this print is sure to evoke curiosity and spark conversations about Albania's history and traditions. Display it proudly on your wall as a cherished piece of art that celebrates diversity and reminds us all of our shared human experiences across different corners of Europe.
