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 high-angle view captures a bustling Romani encampment in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, 1953. Gathered for the annual pilgrimage and festival in honor of Saint Sara, the community has set up camp in a grassy field beside a road. The scene is filled with vintage vehicles, trailers, and converted trucks serving as homes. In the foreground, a woman tends to items under a tarp draped over a car, forming a makeshift shelter next to a mattress on the ground. The entire camp, dotted with yellow wildflowers, is bathed in bright daylight, casting long shadows.
