Photographer’s Note

Back traditions. This Sunday is the Palm. He opens the festivities of Holy Week. The branches commemorates Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. In Corsica, tradition dictates that we tressions palm branches. It is an ancient art, and can people know yet weave genuine masterpieces. More commonly, we buy "Pesciu" (fish), "crocetta" (cross) or "stelle" (stars). Pictured are now u Pesciu and crocetta. On Sunday, branches, before the great mass associated with the branches of olive branches are blessed to be kept in homes for protection. Those from last year are burnt.
In WS: blessing
