EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of the Lucia Festival, held by the German-Swedish Student Association in Berlin, Germany, on December 13, 1934. The annual tradition, rooted in Swedish culture, celebrates the arrival of winter and the Scandinavian saint Lucia, who is believed to bring light during the darkest days of the year. The image shows a group of young men and women, dressed in traditional Swedish attire, gathered around a table adorned with candles and festive decorations. In the center, the Lucia Bride, wearing a white gown and a crown of candles, stands proudly, her eyes closed in concentration as she leads the group in singing traditional Lucia songs. Santa Claus, with his iconic red suit and white beard, sits amongst the group, adding an extra touch of holiday cheer. Despite the joyful scene, it is essential to remember that this photograph was taken during a tumultuous time in history. The year 1934 marked the end of the first year of Adolf Hitler's reign as Chancellor of Germany, and the country was already experiencing the early stages of the Nazi regime's oppression. The presence of the Swedish students, and their ability to celebrate their traditions freely, is a poignant reminder of the importance of cultural diversity and the resilience of human spirit in the face of adversity. This photograph is a rare glimpse into a historical moment, offering a unique perspective on the rich cultural traditions that have endured through the centuries, even in the most challenging of times.
