78th Fete du Citron - the She-Wolf of Rome
The famous Capitoline Wolf of Rome, suckling the twins, Romulus and Remus. This seems to me a fabulous representation of the celebrated bronze, but this time in oranges and lemons. Probably my favourite of all the floats this year.

La célèbre Louve de Rome, l'allaitement des jumeaux, Romulus et Rémus. Cela me semble une représentation fabuleuse de la médaille de bronze célèbre, mais cette fois avec des oranges et des citrons. C'est probablement mon char préféré parmi tous ceux de cette année.
Prachtig!
ReplyDeleteZeker een favoriet!
Een fijne dag

I love oranges and these statues are very funny...
ReplyDeleteThese shots from underneath, looking up, really, really work well, Jilly.
ReplyDeleteAnother amazing one!
ReplyDeleteWhat if Romulus and Remus had been raised on orange juice instead of wolf milk?
Fabulous display! wonderful capture on film.
