Agfacolor by Alfred Marchionini, Nomads or Villagers, Anatolian Women Wear Their Fortunes Where They Show. Both women are comparatively well-to-do. A double row of gold coins hangs below the mantel-sharped headcloth of the villager on the right. Simple gold bracelets encircle her wrists. A necklace of worn coins sets off the richly embroidered jacket of the mother at left. Her turbanlike headdress marks her as a Kurdish nomad from easternmost Turkey. It signifies her preparedness to move at a moment's notice.
