EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of traditional French rural life in the Sablaise region, specifically from the commune of Sable-sur-Sarthe in the Pays de la Loire, circa 1910s. The woman in the image dons a beautiful and intricately designed traditional costume, which includes a long-sleeved blouse with lace detailing, a full, voluminous skirt adorned with floral patterns, and a distinctive white bonnet, known as a "coiffe," perched atop her head. She carries a wicker basket on her arm, a practical accessory for gathering fruits, vegetables, or other essentials from the countryside. Despite the studio setting, the woman's authentic attire and the natural pose convey a sense of authenticity and connection to her rural roots. The backdrop, a diversion from the Sablaise region's western landscape, does little to detract from the overall charm and allure of the image. The woman's serene expression and the soft focus of the photograph add to the nostalgic and romantic appeal of this photograph from a bygone era.
