EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Herwig Prammer, a collection of Perchten masks takes center stage. These traditional alpine masks, used in processions dating back to pre-Christian times, are pictured in the quaint town of Gresten, Austria. The image is distorted and close up, rendering the masks unrecognizable yet intriguingly detailed. The surreal atmosphere created by the night setting adds an air of mystery to the scene. Without any people present, these eerie masks become the focal point as they celebrate a centuries-old tradition. The full-frame composition allows us to appreciate the intricate craftsmanship and creative use of materials that make each mask unique. As we gaze upon this picturesque display, we can't help but feel transported to another time and place. The multiple masks arranged side by side create an ominous presence while also evoking a sense of unity within their group formation. This image serves as a powerful reminder of Austrian heritage and cultural practices that have withstood the test of time. It invites us into a world where ancient rituals intertwine with modern life—a memorial to traditions passed down through generations. Herwig Prammer's skillful capture leaves us captivated by these enigmatic Perchten masks—symbols that embody both reverence for history and an enduring connection between past and present.
