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.

During the annual pilgrimage of the Gypsies in honor of Saint Sara, three violinists lead a procession through Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in 1953. The men walk towards the camera, playing with concentration under bright sunlight. The central musician, dressed in an open shirt and sandals, meets the viewer’s gaze while his companions wear suits. They are followed by a crowd of men past a sign calling for communal prayer and song in the open air.
