EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Lous Cigalouns de Mourseuns stilt walkers from France 'mount up'" we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of the Folkmoot parade through Newcastle in July 1977. The image captures a large group of people, spanning different age ranges, as they take a moment to rest and sit before their exhilarating stilt walking performance begins. Dressed in traditional French attire, these talented performers exude an air of excitement and anticipation. With their impressive stilts towering above them, they seem ready to conquer the streets with their graceful movements and awe-inspiring skills. The sheer height achieved by these stilt walkers adds an element of grandeur to the scene, making it truly unforgettable. As part of the week-long festival celebrations, this procession marked a significant moment in time when cultures converged and united through music, dance, and entertainment. It is evident that both participants and spectators alike were enthralled by this unique display of talent. This photograph serves as a testament to the power of cultural exchange and celebration. It reminds us that even amidst our diverse backgrounds, we can come together to appreciate each other's traditions and create lasting memories. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryears captured by NCJ for Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded that moments like these transcend time – forever etched into our collective memory as symbols of unity and joyous festivities.
