Carnevale di Mamoiada Photograph #1

This photo captures a series of wooden masks worn by Mamuthones during a traditional carnival that takes place yearly in the small town of Mamoiada, Sardinia. They are hung in a row waiting their turn to be painted black by local artisans. This ritual procession, which dates back to the Nuraghic era, is today very much appreciated and loved by locals.
