EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Victorian scrap, natives of Pomerania' dates back to approximately 1890, and is an intriguing glimpse into the past. The image features a charming couple, dressed in elaborate and colourful national costumes, hailing from the region of Pomerania. Pomerania, located between the Baltic Sea and the Oder River, was a historically diverse area inhabited by various ethnic groups, including Slavs, Germans, and Danes. The man in the photograph is dressed in a traditional Pomeranian outfit, complete with a long, flowing tunic, a wide-brimmed hat adorned with feathers, and a long, decorative stick. The woman, equally striking, is dressed in a vibrant, intricately patterned dress, with a high waist, voluminous skirt, and a headdress adorned with flowers. Her shawl is draped elegantly over her shoulders, adding an extra layer of warmth and texture to her outfit. The couple's costumes are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Pomerania, showcasing the intricate details and vibrant colours that were once an integral part of the region's traditions. The photograph, taken during the Victorian era, also reflects the fascination with ethnic diversity and exoticism that was prevalent during that time. Despite the passage of time, this photograph remains a beautiful reminder of the unique and fascinating history of Pomerania and its people. The elaborate costumes, the vibrant colours, and the warm connection between the couple transport us to a bygone era, filled with wonder and intrigue.
