EDITORS COMMENTS
Celebrating the Arrival of the New Year: A Dragon Dance Procession in China, 1908 The vibrant and lively scene in this photograph captures the essence of the Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival. This important traditional Chinese holiday marks the beginning of a new year on the Chinese calendar, which falls between January 21st and February 20th. The first day of the New Year is a time for family reunions, feasting, and various cultural activities. One of the most popular and iconic celebrations during Chinese New Year is the Dragon Dance. This ancient tradition involves a group of performers carrying a long and intricately designed dragon figure made of silk, paper, and bamboo. The dragon, which can reach up to 100 feet in length, is brought to life as the dancers move it through the streets in a lively procession. The loud beats of the drum and the deafening sounds of the cymbals, combined with the aggressive movements of the dragon's head, are believed to evict bad or evil spirits and bring good fortune and prosperity to the community. The Dragon Dance is not only a form of entertainment but also a way to ward off misfortune and usher in a prosperous New Year. This photograph, taken in China in 1908, captures the excitement and energy of the Dragon Dance procession during the Chinese New Year celebration. The image is a testament to the enduring traditions and rich cultural heritage of China.
