EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the vibrant coastal city of Nha Trang, South Vietnam (then known as Annam), in 1922, depicts an enchanting scene from the Tet (New Years Feast) celebrations. At the heart of the bustling public square, an elegant woman in traditional Vietnamese dress, adorned with intricate gold embroidery and a flowing silk scarf, gracefully performs a dance. Accompanying her is a majestic elephant, its ivory tusks and wrinkled skin a testament to its age and wisdom. The elephant, a prized possession of the local mandarin, also participates in the festivities, swaying its massive body in rhythm with the music and the dancer's movements. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of the 1920s in Southeast Asia. The women, dressed in their colorful and intricately designed costumes, mirror the diverse racial and ethnic types that made up the region's population. The rug beneath their feet, adorned with intricate patterns, adds to the overall visual feast. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the customs and traditions that once defined the world of yesteryears. The elephant presentation dance, a unique blend of human and animal performance, was a popular form of entertainment during festive occasions in Vietnam. Today, it serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of the people and their deep-rooted connection to their cultural heritage.
