Photo Overview Striking official real photo postcard from the 1934 Oberammergau Jubiläums-Passionsspiele in Bavaria, Germany, showing the intense dramatic moment between Christus and Judas from the world-famous Passion Play, captured in close-up by photographer Siegbert Bauer of Munich with rich studio lighting and strong theatrical detail. The Oberammergau Passion Play has been performed since 1634, when villagers vowed to stage it every ten years in thanks for being spared from the plague, and the 1934 “jubilee” season marked its 300th anniversary under particularly historic interwar conditions in Germany. Authentic period photo postcards of specific scenes and roles from the 1934 production are prized by collectors of religious art and theater history, so secure this evocative piece of Oberammergau history before it disappears into another collection.
