|---|---|
| Description: | A veiled lady with a parasol in the steep mahalla of Mihrivode. She wears a plaid zar with gloves and dušeme. Her face is covered with a light, semi-transparent scarf with a flower pattern, which is also drawn over part of her fes. She is standing in the lower left corner of the picture, posing for the camera. The photographer's gaze leads up the lane, not capturing the lady’s lower body in the frame. |
| Comment: | The lady is wearing men's gloves and has very large hands. She is probably a man. The blown up image reveals a moustache under the veil. Analogue photographic process, negative-positive (Agfa Isopan 17 DIN). Original preserved as a positive on silver bromine paper, stored as a print and a digital record. |
