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 the bright sun of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, a group of musicians proceeds down an unpaved street during the annual pilgrimage of the Gypsies in honor of Saint Sara, 1953. Men in the foreground play violins as they walk, accompanied by another with a mandolin-like instrument. Onlookers, mostly women and children, watch from the side of the path amidst the village's simple, white-washed buildings, as the strong midday light casts dark shadows on the ground.
