Captured this Zeeland farmer's wife in traditional clothes in Middelburg, Zeeland, the Netherlands.

Of course she's wearing these clothes only at special (folklore/traditional) events.

The image shows her, taking a break while sitting in a with flowers decorated gig at the historical 'Abbey Place', during the yearly 'ringrijden' competition in Middelburg.

By checking-out this LINK you can read more about these events.

Hope you like this image. Thank you in advance for your comments.

Where does the time go C? This is the third Folklore Festival I have attended with you. What a great portrait of the lovely girl in her traditional attire. Perfect setting.

Good health to you and yours.

at first i thought it was just a normal day with a lady in her normal clothes. i thought of how differently she dresses than the people here in arizona. of course, that bubble burst when i read your comment. it is a delightful look at your tradition. thanks for this one.

How beautifully framed she is by the two arrangements of flowers. Such a wonderful costume and the hair is really nice too. Beautiful image, Cornelius.
