EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of a German couple from Freiburg in the late 1800s, dressed in traditional attire that reflects the region's rich cultural heritage. The man, with a strong and sturdy build, wears a high-waisted, dark-colored jacket with intricate gold buttons and a white collar. He completes his outfit with a felt hat adorned with a rooster feather, a symbol of middle-class status. The woman, graceful and elegant, dons a long, flowing, blue dress with an apron, accessorized with a white cap and a shawl. In her hands, she cradles a book, suggesting her literacy and education. The couple's attire, reminiscent of the 18th and early 19th centuries, showcases the timeless beauty and simplicity of German folk costumes. The photo, taken circa 1800, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a bygone era and inviting us to appreciate the history and traditions of Freiburg and its people.
