Description

Easter in Servia: a curious military travesty in a peasant-dance. Drawn by H. W. Koekkoek from a sketch by Rook Carnegie. Our special artist in Servia, The sword-dance danced by Servian girls at easter. The performance takes place in the village street. The girls wear their national festival costume: but one of them has a cuirassier's helmet and cuirass, and she brandishes a cavalry sabre. Another of the girls carries a lance. The performers dance to the music of the Servian bagpipe.
