EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a patriot from Alsace and Lorraine in the 1920s. The artist, Crete, beautifully portrays a woman dressed in traditional costume, proudly displaying her patriotism for France. The woman's attire is adorned with a badge and rosette, symbolizing her allegiance to her country. Her skirt and blouse reflect the rich cultural heritage of Alsace and Lorraine, while her headdress adds an elegant touch to her ensemble. With a gentle smile on her face, she exudes confidence and pride. In this portrait, we witness not only the individuality of this remarkable lady but also glimpse into the larger narrative of national identity during that era. The tricolour flag draped behind her serves as a powerful backdrop representing unity and solidarity. This image is part of "Peoples of all Nations". Volume III edited by JA Hammerton - an anthology celebrating diversity across different cultures worldwide. It offers us an opportunity to appreciate the beauty found within each unique tradition. As we observe this photograph today, it reminds us of the importance of preserving our history and honoring those who came before us. This snapshot freezes a moment in time when patriotism was worn with grace and dignity by individuals like this patriot from Alsace and Lorraine.
