God Blesses Albania!<\/strong><\/h5>\n

\u201cThe portrait of a nation\u201d, so is called one of the exhibits opened with the photos realized by\u00a0Pietro Marubi<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Kol\u00eb Idromeno<\/strong>. The photos have been realized since 1888 up to 2913. In this exhibit are represented 26 phostos of Idromeno and Marubi.<\/p>\n

It is known that Marubi was the first who brought the phostos\u2019 art in Albania followed thereafter by his pupil Kol\u00eb Idromeno. The heredity left by Marubi dynasty is among the most popular in the field of European photography in the second half 19th century and in the first part of the 20th century.<\/p>\n

The exhibit is divided into sections: \u201cGroups and Families\u201d, \u201cWomen\u201d and \u201cMen\u201d.<\/p>\n

In the first section, Marubi and Idromeno have fixed Albanian northern families, Shal\u00ebs, Mirdit\u00ebs, Zadrim\u00ebs, Shllakut, Dukagjinit in 1888-1900. The photos of Marubi are \u201cVillagers of Mirdita\u201d (1888), \u201cTwo women with simple suits\u201d, \u201cThe men of Shala\u201d, \u201cand The highlanders of Shllaku\u201d, all in the year 1890. While Idromeno in this section is presented by \u201cThe Catholic villagers of Zadrima\u201d (1890) and \u201cThe highlanders of Dukagjini\u201d. This section mostly looks like a small ethnographic museum of the end of the \u2018800 and the beginning of \u2018900 in Albania. Here we have men dressed with long socks, with waistcoats and encrusted belts, turbans tied in the head, women with extensive dresses, wrapped in scarves, too much bijouterie around the neck.<\/p>\n

bride or the daughter, with their attitudes help to read a little bit by the nature their character. The man with a straight body, with mustache, who has turned his back to the two women he has by side, expresses a proud character. The wife is wrapped in scarves while the bride is into a long dress, shows her hair until the jaw and has decorated her neck with a variety of jewelries, and among them also a cross that shows the religion. In the photo \u201cThe highlanders of Shllaku during the production of rakia\u201d (1890), Marubi has photographed haughty woman who looks like a man, with infuriated hair and with sombred eyebrows.
\nThe second section, with 6 photos, \u201cLandscapes and scenes of social life\u201d is refered to the life, work and professions of highlanders and to their joys as well. Idromeno has shpwn more about Shkodra with his art. The lake, Buna, the bazaar of Shkodra, the landscape around the city are expressed vivid in his photos. In the \u201cAn summer afternoon in Shkodra\u201d of \u2018900, in the known paths of the Bazaar, confined with both sides with low houses, are seen women with umbrellas in their hands, dressed with \u00e7itjane and with long scarves until down the waist, around the head. While the women wander in the bazaar\u2019s streets, the men have escaped away from the city and have cast nets in the lake (In the photo \u201cFishermen in lake\u201d, 1890).<\/p>\n

For men, there is an important place as well, for officeholders, fighters, religious men of Shkodra in 900. This is the last section called \u201cThe men\u201d. On top there is the Idromeno photo, \u201cTwo Catholics that show the Skanderbeg\u2019s photo\u201d (1910), where are seen men within a black long mantle.<\/p>\n

By Idromeno, we have also the photo of Isamil Qemali with a Turkish officeholder dressed with his official uniform and among them a child dressed with a traditional suit. The photographer from Shkodra has many photos dedicated to the Autonomy Celebration. In the photos \u201cThe military band of freedom\u201d (1910) and \u201cThe autonomy Day\u201d (1913) are seen children with uniforms who hold flags and musical vehicles, clarinets, drums, and bassoons. This is a way to show their joys. The clothing and the lissome bodies of the children show difficult living conditions. A perfect artistic realization who invites you to stay longer in this section is \u201cMeeting for brotherhood\u201d, where a group of men have occupied a mountain site.<\/p>\n

In this section \u201cMarubi\u201d is present with a child photo dressed in a traditional suit. \u201cA child from Kor\u00e7a with a fighter\u2019s hat\u201d, realized in 1890. There is noticed a simple and natural attitude of the child dressed with kilt, with a black belt around the knee and the waist and with the fighter\u2019s hat as well.
\nBut which is the message of this exhibit? If you see them carefully, it is easily understood the irreplaceable role of the photo in the human life, in the peoples life or in the human society. Through photos is realized a certain portrait. The photos of Marubi and Idromeno represent the Albania\u2019s portrait in a certain period of time. The photos with their language talk not only about the traditions of a nation, but also for peace, prosperity and the nature of civilization where it is included. So, even through photos is clearly shown the human life.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
