EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the 1910s, showcases a mother and her children proudly wearing traditional local costumes in Thessaloniki, Greece. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonika or Salonica, was a multicultural city with a rich history, and this image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of its residents. The mother wears an elegant and intricately embroidered dress, adorned with floral patterns and geometric designs. Her headdress, topped with a delicate veil, adds an air of sophistication and completes her traditional outfit. Her children, dressed in matching clothing, mirror her attire, with their outfits featuring similar embroidery and intricate detailing. The family's jewelry adds to the overall charm of the image. The mother wears a necklace with a large, ornate pendant, while her children sport simple yet elegant bracelets and earrings. The children's outfits also feature intricate beadwork, adding to the overall beauty and allure of their traditional attire. The photograph was likely taken in a studio or salon, as evidenced by the plain background and the formal pose of the subjects. Despite the formal setting, the warmth and love shared between the mother and her children shines through, making this image a true treasure of Greek history and culture.
