Albania Albanian Albanians Kingdom Subject Subjects Type Types
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Subjects of the new kingdom, Albanian types" takes us back to the early 20th century, specifically March 15th, 1914. The front cover illustration from Le Petit Journal's supplement illustre showcases a stunning color lithograph that is part of a private collection. The image transports us to the coastal regions of Albania, where we are introduced to a diverse group of individuals representing different facets of Albanian culture. Both male and female subjects are depicted wearing traditional costumes adorned with fez hats, creating an air of authenticity and cultural richness. Intriguingly, some figures in the print carry guns and rifles as symbols of power and protection. This detail hints at the historical context surrounding this period when Europe was experiencing significant political changes. One particularly striking element in this artwork is a rider on horseback carrying what appears to be a jar or magazine. This enigmatic object adds an aura of mystery to the scene while further emphasizing the diversity within Albanian society during that time. Overall, this vibrant illustration offers viewers a glimpse into early 20th-century Albania through its portrayal of various aspects such as clothing styles, weaponry, and equestrian traditions. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation capturing moments from a bygone era in European history.
