“Sa prima essia” ovvero la prima uscita dell'anno "sa die de Santu Antoni" (il giorno di Sant'Antonio), il 17 gennaio, delle maschere tipiche di Mamoiada in provincia di Nuoro, segna l'inizio del carnevale, Sos Mamuthones, curvi sotto il peso dei campanacci, e con il volto coperto da una maschera lignea nera, si muovono lentamente in modo cadenzato, dando un colpo di spalla per scrollare tutta la sonagliera.

They made it just in time, before what I believe is one of the deadliest waves of bad weather (still ongoing) in recent years in that area began. As always, excellent images of the genre.

Hi Giuseppe, I saw an image of Alessandro portraying a Sardinian peculiarity and it occurred to me to pass through your galleries. The peculiarity you have taken up is very beautiful, thanks to you I have the opportunity to observe a folkloric peculiarity of Sardinia. Congratulations, a hug, have a nice weekend. Hello.
