Description:
This image is of a well-to-do merchant who is wearing a type of long coat similar to a kolija (Vogelsang-Eastwood, p. 10) over a caba (Shoberl 1843, p. 34) or qaba (Vogelsang-Eastwood, p. 10). His feet are covered with socks and heeled slippers. The conical, fur hat is like those worn by the soldier and muleteer. This merchant also wears the beard and mustache typical of this region.
