Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6376] 'Carnival all year long.' At some spots in Basel you will be reminded all year long of the Basler Fasnacht, the carnival of Basel. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6326] 'Still going strong.' After a full night of drumming and piping during the carnival in Basel these two people are still going strong. The man in the background however has decided to get some sleep now that the sun is shining again. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6312] 'Three Waggis.' During the Basler Fasnacht, the carnival in Basel, traditionally there is a difference between the people of Basel Stadt, the city, and Basel Land, the countryside around it. The people from the land, who traditionally were farmers and grew the food for the town, are symbolized by the Waggis during the carnival. Mostly you see large groups of them and they throw oranges, the symbol of food, into the crowds. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6373] 'The angel within.' Tuesday is children's carnival during the Basler Fasnacht. Then the children rule and the parents obey. Since the typical Larve, the mask of Basel, is rude and large, it can be a surprise when it is lifted. Which is rarely, but thirst breaks rules. Photo Paul Smit.

Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6357] 'Like father like son.' Basler Fasnacht, Tuesday, children's carnival. It is a day that touches you, because the children rule and the parents obey. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6338] "Face behind the mask.' During the Basler Fasnacht (carnival of Basel) it can be a pleasant surprise to see who is behind a mask. Especially if that mask, called a Larve in Basel, has the face of an Alti Dante, an old spinster. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6336] 'Female piper.' Since the seventies women can participate in the Basler Fasnacht, the carnival of Basel. But only in their own Cliques (bands), not in the traditional ones. Photo Paul Smit.
