EDITORS COMMENTS
Sri Lanka - Devil Dancers (circa 1910s): A captivating glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Sri Lanka, this photograph showcases a group of Devil Dancers performing in traditional attire. The island nation, then known as Ceylon, is renowned for its diverse and vibrant artistic expressions, and the Devil Dance is a prominent and intriguing aspect of its cultural tapestry. The dancers, adorned in elaborate costumes, wear masks depicting various demonic figures. Their bodies are painted with intricate patterns, symbolizing protection from evil spirits. The dancers hold drums, which they beat rhythmically, creating an entrancing sound that sets the stage for the performance. The Devil Dance is believed to have originated from ancient animistic beliefs, where the dancers would drive away evil spirits and bring good fortune to the community. The dance is performed during various festivals and celebrations, and is considered an essential part of Sri Lankan heritage. This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a unique window into the past, allowing us to witness the raw energy and power of this traditional dance form. The dancers' intense expressions, their rhythmic movements, and the hypnotic sound of the drums transport us to another time and place, reminding us of the enduring power of art and culture to connect and inspire us.
