A funeral in Brittany. The funeral procession passing down the main street of Consarneau, the quaint fishing village of Brittany, France. The horse drawing the hearse is led by the hand and four boys walk beside it, with huge lighted candles. The Bretons are deeply religious people and their countryside is dotted with crosses before which they kneel in prayer
