EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful snapshot from 1910 capturing the essence of a traditional German Easter celebration. In this charming photograph, a family of four, dressed in their finest spring attire, sets out on a picturesque path through a quaint rural village to participate in the age-old custom of the Osterhase Eierlesen, or Easter Bunny Egg Hunt. The mother, wearing a elegant hat adorned with flowers, leads the way, followed closely by her two young daughters, who carry woven baskets in anticipation of their egg-filled discoveries. Their father, donning a traditional Easter hat, strides confidently behind, his arms laden with the family's collection vessels. The family's costumes, reminiscent of the turn-of-the-century era, add to the nostalgic atmosphere of the scene. The girls' dresses, adorned with floral patterns and lace, are complemented by their mothers' high-waisted, empire-line gown. The father's outfit, complete with a waistcoat and suspenders, exudes a sense of pride and determination. As they make their way along the path, the family's excitement builds, the anticipation of the hunt fueling their spirits. The rustic surroundings, with their vibrant colors and idyllic charm, serve as a beautiful backdrop to this cherished family tradition. This photograph is a testament to the enduring nature of Easter customs and the joy they bring to families, as they come together to celebrate the arrival of spring and the magic of the Easter Bunny.
