EDITORS COMMENTS

The image captures the essence of Spain during the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the country's rich culture and traditions. The photograph features a young woman in traditional Spanish attire, standing in profile against a backdrop of the picturesque coastal city of Alicante. She wears a long, flowing dress adorned with intricate patterns, accessorized with a fan and a striking headdress. The woman's coy expression and demure pose add to the allure of the image, which exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. The photograph is a testament to the fashionable clothing of the time, with the woman's dress and headdress reflecting the latest trends in Spanish fashion. The black and white medium further enhances the image's timeless quality, allowing the viewer to focus on the details of the scene and the woman's expressive profile. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of travel photography or Spanish art, offering a unique perspective on the country's history and culture. The photograph's title, "At Alicante; Notes on Spain," suggests that it was taken as part of a larger travelogue or journal, providing further context to the scene and the woman's story. Overall, this photograph is a captivating and evocative reminder of Spain's rich cultural heritage and the enduring allure of travel and exploration.
