Description:
Saint Agatha, an early Christian virgin martyr, is one of the patron saints of Catania, Italy where a million devotees throng the streets during her feast days, Feb. 3-6. These sequences were shot over a decade, roughly 1995 to 2005. For sheer numbers of participants and intense fervor, St. Agatha's feast rivals Holy Week rituals in Seville, Spain.
