The chorus of the ,,Schutzgeister" before 1890

"The chorus of the ,,Schutzgeister", created by Carl Stockmann before 1890, is a photographic documentation of a staged scene from a Passion Play. The image captures a moment where the chorus of the Schutzgeister, or guardian spirits, are assembled on stage, possibly in a performance of the Oberammergau Passion Play. The photograph's small size, measuring only 98 mm in height and 140 mm in width, suggests it may have been part of a personal collection or a smaller publication. The image itself provides a glimpse into the staging and costuming of the Passion Play, a tradition with a long history and a significant cultural impact."
