Afghan Woman in Chadri, Afghanistan, 1968
"Denied face and form by an age-old custom, a woman of Kabul secludes herself in a sleeveless silk chadri; a pair of Old World goldfinches rides home from market on her head. Reflecting the forces of change at work in the land, Afghan law no longer requires the chadri, whose pleats echo a style of centuries ago."

—From "Afghanistan: Crossroad of Conquerors," September 1968, National Geographic magazine

【中文翻译】

一位喀布尔的妇女按照古老的传统遮住脸部和外形，一袭无袖的丝绸察都里把自己隔离起来。她头上顶着一对金翅雀从市场回家。阿富汗法律不再要求人们穿那些衣褶模仿几个世纪前风格的察都里，体现了变革的力量正在这块土地上产生作用。
