EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the customary greeting between a Bulgarian man and woman in traditional dress. Taken in 1907, this vibrant colour lithograph beautifully depicts the essence of Bulgarian culture. The image portrays the couple engaging in a formal exchange while adhering to their age-old customs. The man extends his hand for a handshake, accompanied by the phrase "Dobar Den, Kak Ste?" which translates to "Hello, How are You?". This simple yet meaningful gesture reflects not only politeness but also genuine interest in each other's well-being. Every detail is meticulously captured - from the intricate patterns on their costumes to the gentleman's walking stick and pitcher held by the lady. These elements add depth and authenticity to this vintage card from Hignett Bros. , part of their iconic Greetings of the World series produced by Imperial Tobacco Company. As we admire this historical photograph today, it serves as a reminder of how traditions shape our interactions with one another. It showcases Bulgaria's rich cultural heritage and highlights that even amidst changing times, respect and courtesy remain timeless values that transcend generations. Let this image transport you back to an era where greetings were more than just words; they were symbols of connection and goodwill.
