Margaret Hasluck Photographs, Balkan Ethnographic Research, Albania and Greece

   From the UCL SSEES website

"Margaret Masson Hasluck (1885-1948) began her ethnographic fieldwork in the Balkans in 1921 following the death of her husband, the archaeologist Frederick William Hasluck, the previous year. They shared an interest in Balkan culture, had married in 1912 and had travelled extensively in the area prior to the First World War. She based herself in Albania from 1923 until the eve of the Second World War and made notable contributions to Albanian ethnographic research. Digitised here, with kind permission of Mrs. Margaret Woodward, are a selection of photographs taken by Hasluck on her journeys through the Balkans. Chiefly from present day Albania and Greece, they also include from present day Turkey, Macedonia, Kosovo and Croatia. They show views of landscapes, towns and villages as well as portraits of local people and activities".
