SCHLEIFE, GERMANY -- Beautiful hand-painted Easter eggs were displayed at the annual Sorbian Easter market on March 16 in Schleife, Germany.
Easter is a particularly important time of year for Sorbs, a Slavic minority in eastern Germany, and the period includes the tradition of painting Easter eggs that include visual elements intended to ward off evil.
Many Sorbs still speak Sorbian, a language closely related to Polish and Czech.
