[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4345606, member: 2844"]The church tower in the distance looks more Italian/Corsican to me. The barretina was also worn in parts of Italy, the islands of Italy and Malta, and on Corsica. The woman isn't necessarily a Gypsy woman, could be just a young mother down on her luck. Not many Gypsies have fair hair. The way her headscarf is wrapped around her neck is something you see in some costumes of Sardinia and Corsica.[/QUOTE]
