Traditional Outdoor Cooking at the Retro Festival in Groningen, Netherlands

Description

This image depicts a traditional outdoor cooking scene at the retro festival in Groningen, Netherlands. On a grassy field in summer, a woman dressed in retro attire—a green knit cap, a white shirt with a dark brown vest, and layered red and green skirts—exudes historical charm. She stir-fries in a black pot over a mud fire, surrounded by scattered ceramic bowls, a black iron kettle, a woven basket, and a wooden chopping board. Wispy smoke curls around, as if turning back time to the olden days in the Netherlands. Lush green bushes and a small wooden stool in the background accentuate the scene’s simplicity and the festival’s leisure. Every detail conveys the authenticity of historical recreation, making one feel as if they are at a retro celebration in Bourtange, experiencing the warm, lively atmosphere of traditional life.
