They are all wearing traditional peasant shoes (tsarvuli), and the belts of two of the girls are decorated with coins. Three of the girls are wearing flowers in their hair. A boy sitting on a cushion in front of the group is playing the flute. Title is a translation of the given by the Austrian Museum of Folk Life and Folk Art title in German: "Bulgarischer Bauerntanz."
