A Bedouin bride wears her dowry on her wedding day, Eretz Israel, c. 1934.br/br/Photo: Walter Zadek *** Local Caption *** quot; Almost twelve times the photographer tried to take pictures of the little girl before she took away her veil. The little person was not older than eleven years and played with other children, nevertheless she was in the age of marrying and was wearing the coins that were given to every woman for her marriage - as a savings in case of divorce - not to be touched by her husband and a talisman on her front. quot;
