Description

Crowds of men, women, and children at the Three Saints Festival in Trecastagni. A group of men and children are taking part in the parade, on a covered float with three throned statues on it. One of the men wears a white robe over a suit. Two other men wearing suits are lifting small children up onto the float. The statues are of the three patron saints, and they are wearing colourful clothing and sitting on ornate golden thrones. There are buildings in the background. [IJ 31/01/2023]
