always good to see how it looks worn! One can imagine much better. Nice photo!!
yes, for me it's very important to know how the objects of art we collect, as i consider them, are used or worn by the people from that particular culture. it adds an extra dimension and satisfaction. my plan is to print small versions of these kinds of photo's accompanied by a description of the material use, culture/country of origin and additional info, and place it next to the object. almost like how they do it in musea.
This look familar good photo!
