Festival Stilt Dance and Dancers - Dalian, Manchukuo, China
Manchukuo - a puppet state of the Empire of Japan in Northeast China and Inner Mongolia from 1932 until 1945. It was founded as a republic, but in 1934 it became a constitutional monarchy. It had limited international recognition and was under the de facto control of Japan. A Festival Stilt Dance. The area, collectively known as Manchuria, was the homeland of the Manchus, including the emperors of the Qing dynasty. In 1931, the region was seized by Japan following the Mukden Incident and a pro-Japanese government was installed one year later with Puyi, the last Qing emperor, as the nominal regent and later emperor.[1] Manchukuos government was dissolved in 1945 after the surrender of Imperial Japan at the end of World War II. Date: circa 1930s

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of traditional Manchurian culture during the Manchukuo era (1932-1945), a time when Japan occupied the northeastern region of China and Inner Mongolia. The scene unfolds in the bustling port city of Dalian, formerly known as Dairen, where a Festival Stilt Dance takes place. The Manchukuo government, established under Japanese control, had limited international recognition and was ruled by the last Qing emperor, Puyi. The photograph showcases a lively performance of Manchurian stilt dancers, their colorful costumes and towering stilts adding to the festive atmosphere. The dancers, with their faces painted and adorned with traditional headdresses, gracefully move in rhythm with the music, their flags waving in the air. The event, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Manchuria, draws a large crowd of onlookers, including Japanese soldiers and local residents. The photograph, taken in the 1930s, offers a glimpse into a time when the Japanese occupation of Manchuria was in full swing. Despite the political turmoil, the people of Manchuria continued to celebrate their traditions, preserving their unique cultural identity amidst the changing political landscape. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and adaptability of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
