Series 1: Giglio, Italian American traditions, 1980-1983 | |||||||||||||
Manuscripts and photographs documenting the Giglio Feast, a religious festival and street fair. The Giglio Feast usually opens the week after the 4th of July, and runs for 12 days including the feast day of Our Lady of Mount Carmel on July 16th, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The feast pays homage to the patron saint, San Paolino or Saint Paulinus, of Nola, Italy, and culminates with dancing the giglio, a huge flower-laden steeple of wood, more than 80 feet in height, carried through the streets on the shoulders of hundreds of men. Field work by Sheldon Posen, Maxine Miska, Joseph Sciorra, and Martha Cooper. | |||||||||||||
