Description

The girl is wearing a traditional dress characteristic of Javakhk, a region in southern Georgia with a significant Armenian population. This attire reflects the historical influence of Erzurum (Karin), as many Armenians migrated from there to Javakhk during the 19th century, bringing their distinctive clothing traditions with them.
