Old postcard – village procession, folk costumes, ethnography, circa 1940

An old black and white photograph on a postcard depicts a group of people, probably a village procession or celebration in traditional costumes. People gather on a country road in front of a house with a garden and a cross. The photograph shows a distinct atmosphere of village life and religious traditions of the first half of the 20th century. The back of the postcard is unwritten, with visible traces of age and wear, which underlines its authenticity, probably around 1940. A great collector's item for lovers of ethnography, old customs and rural life.
