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 in honor of Saint Sara, a group of Gypsies establishes a makeshift camp in a sunlit field in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, 1953. In the foreground, a woman tends to cooking pots over a smoky fire as a barefoot boy in a plaid shirt and suspenders smiles at the camera. Other children and adults are gathered near their vintage vehicles—a truck with a canvas cover and a car with luggage on its roof—amidst scattered belongings and a simple tent.
