EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of an old Welsh woman, dressed in the traditional attire of her homeland, dating back to the late 19th century. The woman's age is evident in the wrinkles etched deeply into her weathered face, and the wisdom that shines in her piercing, expressive eyes. Her dress, made of coarse wool, is adorned with intricate embroidery, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Wales. The voluminous skirt, worn with a high-waisted bodice, is topped with a distinctive Welsh hat, known as a 'gwedd' or 'gwesg' in the Welsh language. This hat, with its tall, conical shape and ornate decorations, is a symbol of Welsh identity and has been worn by women in Wales for centuries. The woman's hands, gnarled with age, are folded in her lap, hinting at a life filled with hard work and perseverance. The presence of a beard on the woman's chin, though uncommon for women of the time, adds an intriguing element to the image, suggesting that this may be a portrait of a bearded lady, a rare phenomenon in Welsh folklore. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when tradition and heritage were deeply rooted in the daily lives of the people of Wales.
