EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century transports us to the rural landscapes of Bulgaria, specifically Collakia and Balga near Salonika. The image showcases a Bulgarian woman dressed in traditional attire, providing a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of this region. The intricate details of her costume highlight the importance placed on preserving tradition and identity within Bulgarian society. Her clothing reflects the historical significance attached to each garment, serving as a visual representation of her social status and role within the community. Accompanying her is a planter, diligently tending to his crops in harmony with nature. This harmonious relationship between humans and their environment speaks volumes about the agrarian lifestyle prevalent in these regions during that era. The drawing itself was meticulously crafted by Todeschini of Milan, capturing every nuance and intricacy with great precision. It was later engraved by Delatre for Raphael Jacquemin's renowned publication "Iconographie General et Methodique du Costume du IV au XIX siecle" further solidifying its place as an important historical document. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of Bulgaria's rich history and cultural diversity. It serves as a testament to the resilience and pride exhibited by its people throughout centuries past.
