EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portugal Tricanas in Coimbra in 1909," is a stunning glimpse into the past, transporting us back over a century to the vibrant streets of Coimbra, Portugal. The image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases a group of young women, known as Tricanas, dressed in traditional attire, gathered around a lantern in the heart of the city. The Victorian and Edwardian eras, characterized by their elegance and refinement, are beautifully captured in this photograph. The women, with their flowing dresses and intricate headpieces, embody the grace and charm of the time. The lantern, a common source of light during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, adds an element of mystery and intrigue to the scene. Coimbra, a historic city located in central Portugal, is renowned for its rich cultural heritage and academic traditions. The University of Coimbra, one of Europe's oldest universities, is a prominent feature of the city's landscape. The Tricanas, who were known for their lively and spirited nature, were a popular attraction for tourists and travelers visiting the city during this era. This photograph offers a unique and rare insight into the lives of these women and the traditions of Coimbra during a time of great change. The vintage aesthetic, with its muted colors and soft focus, adds to the timeless quality of the image, making it a must-have for any collection of historical photographs or those with an appreciation for the past.
