EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dating back to approximately 1835, showcases the traditional costumes of the Basque people in France. The Basque region, located in the southwestern part of France and the northern part of Spain, has a rich cultural heritage that is distinct from its surrounding areas. The Basque people have maintained their unique identity and traditions, including their traditional attire. In this photograph, a male figure is depicted wearing the traditional Basque costume. He dons a white shirt with long sleeves, adorned with intricate embroidery at the cuffs and neckline. Over the shirt, he wears a vest, also embellished with embroidery. A red sash is tied around his waist, and he wears a black beret, a symbol of Basque identity. The male figure also carries a parasol, which was a common accessory used to protect oneself from the sun. The female figure in the photograph is equally stunning in her traditional Basque attire. She wears a long, full skirt made of black fabric, adorned with intricate white embroidery. A white blouse with long sleeves and a high neckline is visible underneath the skirt. A red apron is tied around her waist, and she wears a white headscarf, known as a "txapela," which is also a symbol of Basque identity. The female figure also carries a parasol, adding a touch of elegance to her outfit. This photograph provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the traditional costumes of the Basque people in France during the mid-19th century. The intricate embroidery, the use of parasols, and the distinctive berets and headscarves all serve to highlight the unique cultural traditions of the Basque region.
