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.

Romani families gather in a sun-drenched field by the sea for the annual pilgrimage honoring Saint Sara in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, 1953. Their temporary camp is a scene of bustling activity, centered around old trucks heavily loaded with canvas covers, bedding, and supplies. Children in simple clothing, some barefoot, play near the vehicles and a small A-frame tent, while a woman in a floral dress tends to the group and a man holds a young child. A small black goat wanders among them against the backdrop of the calm sea.
