This print takes us back to the vibrant village of Felanitx in 1926, capturing a moment of cultural celebration. The image showcases a traditional dance known as Dances Copeo, deeply rooted in the customs and folklore of the Balearic Islands. The people of Felanitx are seen joyously participating in this age-old tradition, their movements reflecting the rich history and Mediterranean culture that defines this enchanting region. The dancers gracefully navigate through a passacaglia, accompanied by lively music and popular songs that fill the air with merriment. Preserved within this snapshot is not only an expression of local identity but also a testament to Spain's diverse heritage. Santiago Ortega skillfully captures this scene, immortalizing it for generations to come.
