Amidst the vibrant cityscape of Stockholm, Sweden lies the enchanting Djurgarden Island, a historical oasis that offers a glimpse into Sweden's rich past. In this evocative photograph, a Lapp family is seen enjoying the picturesque surroundings of the island, which was established in 1891 as an open-air museum to showcase the traditional way of life for peoples in various regions of Sweden prior to the Industrial era. The Lapp family, also known as Sami or Lapplanders, are an indigenous people originating from the northernmost parts of Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Russia. Their unique culture and way of life have long fascinated Swedes and visitors alike, making them a popular attraction at Djurgarden Island. Dressed in traditional garb, the family members are seen engaging in daily activities, such as weaving baskets, preparing food, and tending to their reindeer.
