Procession with "The Christs" sent on July 18, 2016 (21:54) by Renzo Fermo. 30 comments, 1897 views. [retina]

1/50 f/1.9, ISO 50, hand held.

Nella tradizione Ligure si usa portare in processione i Cristi , grandi e pesanti croci che superano spesso i 100 kg , si parla di alcuni casi in cui il peso supera , se pur di poco , i 150 kg. Ogni Cristo ha una scorta di 7/8 "Cristezanti"(termine Genovese)che muniti di robuste e larghe bretelle di cuoio imbottito che si congiungono alla vita a un grosso cinturone al quale è applicato il "Crocco"una specie di robusta scodella dove viene appoggiata la base affusolata del Cristo per poter essere trasportato , tenendolo in equilibrio .Di solito i portatori per ogni Crocifisso sono 3 o 4 che si danno il cambio , aiutati nell'operazione delicata di traslazione da un portatore all'altro , da "u stramuou" che afferra la croce , alla base con una mano , e un apposito piolo metallico posto più in alto , con l'altra mano e la tiene sollevata sulle braccia il tempo necessario ad effettuare il cambio.Anche questi che effettuano la traslazione , di solito sono 2 o 3 . Tutti i componenti del gruppo circondano il portatore di turno mentre cammina , guardinghi e pronti ad intervenire ad ogni malaugurata evenienza. Mi sono dilungato un po' , ma mi faceva piacere raccontare come si svolge questa antica manifestazione Ligure. Ps So benissimo che come foto non è un gran che , fatta col telefonino alle nove di sera con poca luce e perciò anche un po' mossa ma , il mio intento era quello di presentare un documento di questo tipo di manifestazione , che probabilmente non a tutti è nota nei particolari descritti.

Hello Federico, thanks to the nice comment and testimony about this exciting event of
Ligurian tradition. If you have the memory still alive after so many years it means that it is really exciting
seen from the truth. I still see the vision, I was a kid, when they brought two Christs heavy
on M.Maggio, where I grew up a little more full of pebbles path, I considered these men
heroes to the will and devotion that I saw in them.
Renzo :-)
