EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the picturesque region of Alsace, France in 1922, showcases a lively scene of women shopping in traditional costumes. The women, adorned in their distinctive clothing and winged headdresses, engage in open-air market transactions with local vendors. The marketplace teems with an assortment of fresh produce, including fruits and vegetables, displayed on colorful stalls. The women's intricate attire, reminiscent of the 1920s racial types or "types" popular during this era, adds a rich cultural dimension to the scene. The women, with their confident and animated expressions, exude a sense of community and camaraderie as they interact with one another and the vendors. The photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the people of Alsace during the 1920s. This evocative image is a testament to the enduring appeal of traditional European customs and the vibrant energy of open-air markets.
