A bridal dress, Denmark


Bridal dress, Denmark, 1900 by Solveig Land (Lund?)

Printed below the image: 
'Bridal dress, Denmark - In Denmark a society has 
been formed to revive the old costume dances and songs, the members 
of which are called folk-dancers. They wear the old national costumes
 richly embroidered with gold and silver'

I came to think of the Icelandic costums when I saw the hat...
