Description: | Blurred snapshot of a young Catholic peasant girl in Baščaršija, taken over her shoulder with her face in profile. She is wearing festive costume, including a wide skirt, a white blouse with short sleves, a gold-braided jelek and a white scarf fixed in her plaited hair and falling down her back like a bride's veil. She wears flowers and other ornaments in her hair. Another girl is standing to her left, similarly dressed. In front of her, on the picture's right margin, a woman in urban European dress is crossing some tram tracks. |
Comment: | The headgear suggests that the girl is unmarried. Her costume is from the surroundings of Sarajevo. Analogue photographic process, negative-positive (Agfa Isopan 17 DIN). Original preserved as a negative and a positive on silver bromine paper, stored as a print, negative and digital record. |
