EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative postcard captures the solemn and awe-inspiring atmosphere of Bruges' Solemn Procession of the Holy Blood, an annual Roman Catholic tradition that dates back to the 14th century. The procession, which takes place on Ascension Day, is led by a band of lancers in elegant uniforms, their horses prancing proudly in the cobblestone streets of this enchanting European city. The centrepiece of the procession is the revered relic believed to contain the Blood of Jesus, housed in the Basilica of the Holy Blood, or St. Sang, a significant pilgrimage site for the faithful. The crowd of spectators, dressed in their Sunday best, line the streets to witness this profound display of faith and devotion, their faces reflecting a mixture of reverence and wonder. The horses' hooves clatter against the pavement, mingling with the distant tolling of church bells, creating a symphony of sound that transports us back to a time long past. This postcard, postmarked circa 1908, offers a glimpse into the rich history and tradition of Bruges, a city that continues to captivate visitors with its unique blend of European charm and religious heritage.
