EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1910 by Howells Vincenzo, captures a momentous pilgrimage and rite in Madonna del Canneto, Roccavivara, Campobasso. The image showcases the devout followers of Catholicism partaking in a sacred tradition of crossing the river seven times. The scene is filled with an air of spirituality as men, women, and children dressed in traditional clothing embark on this symbolic journey. Their attire reflects the popular fashion trends of that era while also paying homage to their religious beliefs. It serves as a testament to the deep-rooted connection between faith and culture. The landscape surrounding the river courses adds to the ethereal ambiance captured within this photo print. The flowing water symbolizes purification and renewal, reinforcing the significance of this ritual for those participating. As they traverse through each crossing, their devotion becomes palpable. This portrait not only provides insight into one specific group's customs but also offers glimpses into Campania's rich ethnography and folklore traditions. It represents a snapshot of European heritage as these individuals are descendants or inhabitants originating from Europe. Vincenzo's composition skillfully captures both individual expressions and collective unity among these pilgrims. Their faces reveal determination mixed with reverence as they engage in this spiritual act together. As we gaze upon this historical photograph today, it serves as a reminder of our ancestors' unwavering faith and dedication to their religious practices. It invites us to reflect on our own connections to tradition while appreciating how rituals like these continue to shape communities around the world.
