Gypsies on the occasion of the yearly pilgrimage and festival of the Gypsies in honor of Saint Sara, Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in 1953.

In Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, 1953, a young girl rests during the annual Gypsy pilgrimage in honor of Saint Sara. She sits on the concrete floor of an open-sided structure, leaning against a thick pillar as she looks down at a plate of food. Strong sunlight casts harsh, angular shadows across the ground, where another figure lies resting in the shade of the colonnade. Through the openings, a grassy landscape is visible, stretching towards a beach and a body of water in the far distance.
