A sunlit procession makes its way through Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer during the annual pilgrimage of the Gypsies in honor of Saint Sara, 1953. Accompanied by men on horseback, a dense crowd carries an ornate litter on its shoulders. Adorned with vibrant cloth and a profusion of flowers, it holds the statues of the town's patron saints, Saint Mary Jacobe and Saint Mary Salome. In the distance, a long line of parked buses indicates the large scale of the gathering.
