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.
A young child with large, dark eyes is the focus of a candid moment during the annual Gypsy pilgrimage for Saint Sara. Captured in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in 1953, the child holds a piece of food to their mouth, gazing slightly away from the camera. A shallow depth of field isolates them from the surrounding communal meal, where out-of-focus figures in the foreground and background create a sense of a shared setting. The grainy, monochrome photograph emphasizes the simple act of eating.
