EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1910s, depicts a lively and spirited scene of local Bretons engaging in a traditional dance around a jug of locally produced cider in the picturesque region of Brittany, France. The scene is set in an orchard, surrounded by apple trees heavy with ripe fruit, hinting at the harvest season. The Bretons, dressed in their colorful and intricately designed costumes, dance in a circle, their faces expressing joy and merriment. One man, on the left, seems to have had a little too much to drink, his expression reflecting the joviality of the moment. In the background, a pair of pigs look on curiously, adding to the rustic charm of the scene. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural traditions of Brittany, a region known for its apple orchards and production of delicious cider. The image is a reminder of the simple pleasures and communal spirit that once defined rural life in France.
