EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a group of Balinese girls diligently grind sago flour in the traditional way, using mortars and pestles, in the picturesque village of Bali, Indonesia, during the 1930s. The scene transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life and customs of this beautiful island paradise. Sago is a staple food in the Balinese diet, and the process of making sago flour is a labor-intensive one. The girls in the photograph are working together, each taking turns to grind the sago tubers using the heavy wooden mortars and pestles. The sago tubers are first peeled, steamed, and then grated before being placed in the mortars for grinding. The resulting flour is then used to make various Balinese dishes, including the popular sago porridge or gula apong, a sweet dessert made with coconut milk and palm sugar. The girls in the photograph are dressed in traditional Balinese attire, adding to the authenticity of the scene. Their expressions convey a sense of focus and determination, as they work in harmony to complete their task. The lush green foliage in the background and the rustic setting of the village add to the serene and idyllic atmosphere. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Bali and the resilience of its people. It offers a rare glimpse into the past, showcasing the traditional methods of food production that have been passed down through generations. The photograph is a beautiful reminder of the importance of preserving cultural traditions and the simple joys of communal living.
