Afion-Karahissar, Ottoman Bride
before 1915
The original photograph was a postcard with the name Shanour Ushulian written on the backside. Perhaps this is she. With her apparel -- the embroidered silk gown and gold-coin necklaces -- she displays her family's wealth and suggests that she is newly married.
