If the Albanian in this photograph is really Dedë Gjo Luli (which I do not believe at all; neither from facial features nor from clothing), then all the better!
I emphasize: Dedë Gjo Luli was never documented to have worn “şalvare.”
.
Nevertheless, this would also be photographic evidence that reinforces what has long been written in books and studies: that Dedë Gjo Luli had meetings with King Nikola of Montenegro.
Such documents are welcome, although it is not as if they hadn’t already fallen into the hands of researchers before. The discovery of the “hot water” may seem like a colossal revelation only to someone who has just been weaned from their mother’s breast.
