young potter

Posted by
Franz (Baden, Austria) on 1 March 2017 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

from my tours of the Baltic States in the summer of 2016

When we visited the island fortress of Trakai near Vilnius in August, a medieval fair was taking place, with artisans performing their age-old crafts, musicians performing music from the Middle Ages, and stalls selling everything from food to clothes to all kinds of artifacts.

This charming girl was making vases and pots of clay on her potter's wheel, and she was very good at it.

Very good portrait !
Medieval markets are usually interesting and good source of photographs, and Trakai is a very indicated place for it.
