Fête du Citron: Cinema - La Serenissima


Venice comes to Menton! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw these figures in the carnival. La Serenissima - surely THE most beautiful city in the world.

  13. That's an astonishing costume. Looking at all of the carnival photos, I'm so impressed with the quality of the work everyone did, so marvelous looking. Here it's all bright colors and silliness, this is so much more sophisticated.
