Color of Hay: Maramures 2
Easter Bread, Sarbi, Maramures, 2000
Easter marks the changing of everything. Spring demonstrates the earth’s resurrection in imitation of their Lord’s. Greetings change from “Good day, where are you going?” to the formal exchange: “Christ has risen!” followed by the necessary response: “Truly he has risen!”
For women, it is a once yearly opportunity to show their artistic flair as they rival the gate carver with decorated bread.
