Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This is a carte-de-visite of an unidentified Peruvian woman. The woman in this photograph is depicted as a tapada. The tapada was the most widespread “tipo de antano” or a sentimental, nostalgic stereotype of traditional stock characters from times gone by, a symbol of the lost colonial Lima. The tapada – meaning “covered” or “veiled” - refers to a type of traditional dress. The costume consisted of the manto (“shawl”) and saya (a close-fitting pleated skirt), both in conservative dark colors. The manto covered the head and was drawn to completely cover the face, leaving a triangular window exposing a single eye.
