EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time from September 25, 1901, in Equihen-Plage, France. The image shows a procession of the blessing of the sea with Swiss clergy leading the way. Surrounding them are inhabitants and young girls wearing traditional headdresses, all standing with their feet in the water.
The scene is filled with religious symbolism and cultural significance as the clergy perform their duties while the community gathers to participate in this age-old tradition. The atmosphere is one of reverence and unity as people come together to honor their faith and heritage.
The backdrop of the coastline adds to the beauty of the moment, highlighting both nature's majesty and humanity's connection to it through ritual and ceremony. The women's costumes add a touch of color and tradition to the scene, creating a visual feast for the eyes.
This photograph serves as a window into early 20th-century France, capturing not just a single event but an entire way of life that has been passed down through generations. It is a reminder of our shared history and traditions that continue to shape who we are today.
