EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of tradition and folklore in the Ukraine from 1894. In this historical image, we see a group of individuals known as necks, nicsor, nixies, or nokkens being expelled before their first bath in the river. This custom holds deep cultural significance and is believed to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck to those participating.
The detail captured in this digital improved illustration by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder allows us to truly appreciate the intricate rituals and beliefs of the past. The expressions on the faces of these figures convey a sense of solemnity and reverence as they partake in this age-old ceremony.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to a world where superstition and tradition intertwined with everyday life. The rich history and customs depicted here remind us of the importance of honoring our roots and preserving our heritage for future generations.
Through art like this photo print, we are able to connect with cultures long gone but not forgotten. It serves as a reminder that our past shapes who we are today and that there is beauty in embracing traditions that have stood the test of time.
