EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1938, showcases the rich cultural heritage of Croatia through the traditional dance known as the Kolo or Vrlika. The national dance of Croatia, this lively and spirited performance is depicted here as two peasants gracefully twirl and intertwine in a meadow adorned with vibrant poppies, a symbol of spring and rebirth in Croatian folklore. Dressed in their full traditional costumes, the dancers embody the essence of Croatian history and tradition. The intricate embroidery and bold patterns on their clothing reflect the unique artistic craftsmanship of the region. The male dancer wears a white shirt, red waistcoat, and black trousers, adorned with silver buttons and a red sash. His hat, known as a "šalara," is a distinctive element of Croatian peasant attire. The female dancer dons a long, flowing white dress with intricate floral patterns, a red apron, and a headscarf, known as a "čepilica," which is tied in a traditional knot at the back of her head. The Kolo or Vrlika dance is a circular, lively dance that is often performed during celebrations and festivals. The dance involves partners joining hands and forming a circle, with the dancers moving in a continuous, circular motion, weaving in and out of one another. The dance is believed to have originated as a way for Croatian peasants to express their joy and connection to the land and the changing seasons. This photograph serves as a beautiful reminder of the rich cultural heritage and traditions that continue to thrive in Croatia, and the importance of preserving and celebrating the history and traditions of our past.
