EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph by Robert Harding captures the essence of a village weaver near Lasithi Plateau in Crete, Greece. The image showcases a skilled European woman standing outside her traditional wooden home, basking in the warm sunshine. With a vibrant scarf draped around her neck and colourful clothes hanging to dry on the terrace behind her, she exudes creativity and productivity. Her hands are occupied with fixing a contemporary loom, showcasing her ability and expertise in weaving. Dangling from the loom is a beautifully crafted rug, highlighting the heritage and craftsmanship of this Greek island. The whole scene depicts a way of life that has been passed down through generations - one that embraces tradition while adapting to modern times. As she stands there working diligently on her homemade machine, surrounded by the picturesque village backdrop, it's evident that this woman's craft is not just about producing textiles but also preserving cultural identity. Her dedication to this specialty contributes to both local tourism and domestic life. The low angle view adds depth to the photograph as it captures not only the weaver but also provides glimpses into everyday village life. This image serves as an invitation for viewers to travel and explore this enchanting destination where ancient traditions come alive amidst breathtaking landscapes.
