| Escrito al dorso: "A WELSH EISTEDDFOD. Northern Wales stands
upon England´s western border like a great bastion, and offers access
from England only by two routes. It is therefore not surprising that it is a
remote country of strong and individual character with the wild grandeur
of its mountains, lake and castles, which make it a favourite haunt of
holiday - makers from many parts of the British Isles.
The Welsh are an ancient nation and the have kept alive their history
and legends in song and story, for they are a nation of singers and story
- tellers. They have also retained their own language.
This photograph was taken during a Welsh festival, an Eisteddfof, when
the performers, who may sing or recite either singly or in choirs, wear
the robes of the Druids, an ancient religious sect. PASSED BY THE
CENSOR AND ISSUED BY THE BRITISH COUNCIL PRESS
DEPARTMENT." | |
