Strude (ostrich). Women wearing traditional headdresses known a 'ostrich'- a kind of masking of women used as protection against wind+ weather.
Today this is only worn on special occasions.
This series is drastically different from the rest of Sondergaards work-a past project was of prostitutes in Copenhagen, really amazing, gritty images. I also enjoyed her recent photo collaboration with Nicolai Howalt of men hunting on a misty day+of the dying birds that were hunted... www.trinesondergaard.com/
