Camargue: Boys fishing near Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in 1953.

In the sunlit landscape of the Camargue, near Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, a group of boys and a man are fishing from the earthen bank of a canal in 1953. One youth, in swim trunks, stands at the water's edge holding a long pole to operate a large, arched fishing net. He is watched by another young man and an older companion in a cap, while a fourth figure crouches in the foreground. Across the flat terrain, a building with a steep roof stands out against the horizon, which is traced by a line of utility poles.
