Traditional Gozitan woman with sorra

Categories & Tags: People Work and Craftsmanship
A historical photograph capturing a Gozitan woman balancing her sorra, a traditional head wrap, laden with purchases as she walks along a dirt path. Her sturdy posture and traditional attire reflect the resilience and cultural identity of rural life in early 20th-century Gozo. The barren landscape in the background further emphasises the isolation and simplicity of the time.
