The photo depicts the preparation of a horse for the Carnival of Oristano, Sardinia. In the foreground, a weathered hand, wearing a lace shirt, gently combs the horse's coat. The "Sa Sartiglia" is the typical carnival of Oristano, a city in Sardinia. It takes place in February, on the last Sunday and the last Tuesday of Carnival. The guilds of carpenters and farmers face each other in skill tests, trying to catch a star with a sword while riding a galloping horse. The photo depicts the preparation of the horse, which will be groomed, with its mane braided into numerous braids and decorated with colorful rosettes that identify the district of origin.
