Buying the Christmas Turkeys in the Market at Malaga, Spain, 1890
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that transports us back in time to the vibrant and bustling marketplace of Malaga, Spain during the late 19th century. The image, published in "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper," Volume 42, July to December, 1890, captures the essence of the holiday season as locals go about their business of purchasing turkeys for their Christmas feasts. In the foreground, we see a group of men and women, dressed in traditional Spanish clothing, haggling with a turkey seller. The seller, dressed in a simple white shirt and black trousers, wears a straw hat and holds a large turkey by its feet, ready to weigh it on a scale for his customers. The women, wearing long, flowing skirts and shawls, and the men, in vests and pants, engage in animated conversation with the seller, their expressions revealing a mix of determination and amusement. In the background, the market comes alive with activity. Other vendors sell fruits, vegetables, and other goods, while customers mill about, chatting and bartering. The scene is filled with a sense of community and camaraderie, as people come together to prepare for the holiday season. The photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a Spanish market town during the Victorian era. The traditional costumes, the lively market atmosphere, and the turkeys, which would have been a luxury item for many, all combine to create a rich and evocative image that continues to captivate viewers today.
