A Ticino Woman - Switzerland
A Ticino Woman - Switzerland in traditional costume, holding a wooden rake with a large woven reed basket on her back. Canton Ticino or just Ticino is the southernmost canton of Switzerland. The written language is Italian in almost the entire canton (except the Walser municipality of Bosco Gurin, where it is German). It surrounds the Italian exclave of Campione d'Italia. Together with areas of the canton of Graubunden it makes up the so-called Svizzera Italiana (Italian Switzerland)
