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 6369] 'Timid beauty.' Tuesday is children's carnival during the Basler Fasnacht, the carnival of Basel. Then the children rule and the parents obey. But when you are a bit timid it's not easy to rule. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6364] 'Carnival beauty.' Tuesday is children's carnival during the Basler Fasnacht, the carnival of Basel. Then the children rule and the parents obey. But it is tiring to be the boss and to play and play and play. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6363] 'Close to tears.' Tuesday is children's carnival during the Basler Fasnacht. Then the children rule and the parents obey. But it is tiring to be the boss and to play and play and play. So at the end tears are never far. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6357] 'It's great to be with my mom.' Tuesday is children's carnival during the Basler Fasnacht. Then the children rule and the parents obey. 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.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.JURA 6318] 'Whistling Old spinsters.' During the Basler Fasnacht (carnival in Basel) two Alti Dantes (old spinsters) pipe while walking along the Rhine. Mind you, in daily life they are a couple. You can see the beard of the man, at right. Why do people pipe during the carnival - very loud, high pitched and seemingly chaotic - often for more then an hour in a row without stopping? That's what carnival, in its heathen origins, is all about: scaring away the winter! Photo Paul Smit.
