Real photo postcard of a woman in traditional Wachauer Volkstracht (Wachau folk costume) standing before a panoramic view of Krems an der Donau, Lower Austria. She wears the distinctive Wachau dress — dark bodice with white collar, full skirt, and the elaborate Goldhaube (gold cap) headdress — and holds a mandolin-type instrument with ribbon streamers. The towers of the Piaristenkirche and other Krems churches are visible in the townscape behind her. Card no. 76453.
