This photo belongs to the collection of Edit Fél and Tamás Hofer. 
Edit Fél and Tamás Hofer carried out fieldwork in Átány during the 1950s, when the new political regime was attempting to destroy traditional peasant culture. They documented the traditional elements of folk culture, as well as new ones, like changes in agriculture and the effects of collectivization. The two ethnographers worked with the people of Átány to produce such extraordinary fieldwork. They collected every bit of information about agriculture, customs, everyday life, as well as food and nutrition. They took several photographs and collected objects for the Museum of Ethnography. These objects, manuscripts, photos etc., are currently part of different collections in the Museum of Ethnography. Fél and Hofer published articles, and their book, Proper Peasants: Social Relations in a Hungarian Village, was first published in 1969, in Chicago. It has been translated into several languages, and the Hungarian translation, based on the German version, was published in 1997. They used maps, statistics, photos, and many quotes to present people's opinions and feelings. During their fieldwork, several of their photographs were added to the photo collection of the Ethnological Archives.
