EDITORS COMMENTS
LA Tarasque Polka: A Celebration of Fear and Deliverance in Provence, France, Circa 1870 This photograph captures a lively and spirited scene of the annual LA Tarasque Polka celebration in the picturesque town of Tarascon, Provence, France. The Tarasque Polka is a traditional folk dance that commemorates the legendary tale of the Tarasque, a fearsome dragon-like beast said to have terrorized the region in the 13th century. The image shows a throng of people, their faces etched with expressions of both terror and delight, as they dance around a wooden effigy of the Tarasque. Dressed in colorful costumes and holding sticks, they leap and twirl in unison, their movements mirroring the rhythm of the lively polka music that fills the air. The Tarasque Polka is a unique and fascinating blend of fear and celebration, a testament to the resilience and ingenuity of the human spirit. The legend of the Tarasque, which tells of the beast's eventual demise at the hands of the townspeople, serves as a reminder of the power of community and the importance of facing one's fears. This photograph, taken circa 1870, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Provence and the enduring power of folk lore. The Tarasque Polka remains a cherished tradition in Tarascon, attracting visitors from around the world who come to experience the magic and excitement of this unique celebration.
