EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a solemn and vibrant procession for the Christian festival of Rameaux in Axoum (Axum), located in the Tigre region of Ethiopia, Africa. The image showcases a full-length view of a large group of men celebrating outside, as they participate in this joyous parade. Each member holds an umbrella or parasol, adding to the festive atmosphere. The procession is led by an Ethiopian Orthodox priest who carries crosses symbolizing their faith. The adults-only gathering highlights the spiritualism and deep-rooted religious customs that are integral to Ethiopian culture. Dressed in traditional clothing, these individuals proudly showcase their African ethnicity and Eastern African heritage. Underneath the sun's shade, this medium-sized group marches with utmost reverence and devotion towards their destination. The photograph beautifully encapsulates both tradition and spirituality intertwined harmoniously within this celebration. Photographers Bruno Barbier and Robert Harding have skillfully captured not just a moment frozen in time but also an insight into Ethiopia's rich cultural tapestry. This remarkable image serves as a testament to the enduring traditions upheld by communities across Africa while offering viewers a glimpse into one of Ethiopia's most cherished festivals - Rameaux.
