This black and white photograph captures a somber scene from the San Giusto festival. A large crowd of people is gathered outdoors, their attention drawn to the hindquarters and legs of a horse lying on the ground in the foreground. The horse appears to be injured or deceased, its powerful form contrasting with the concrete street surface and a visible manhole cover. The people, mostly men, are densely packed, many looking down towards the horse or the immediate vicinity of the incident. Their expressions are not clearly discernible, but the overall atmosphere suggests a moment of contemplation or observation during a significant event. In the background, multi-story urban buildings with windows and balconies line what appears to be a street or public square. Visible text on a sign in the background reads "LABORATORIO PASTICCERIA LE CAPRICE," indicating a pastry shop nearby. The accompanying text on the right side of the frame provides critical context, stating in Dutch: "Het feest van San Giusto. Het paard heeft zijn been gebroken tijdens de race en zal later die dag afgemaakt worden. Ondertussen gaat de race door." (The San Giusto festival. The horse broke its leg during the race and will be put down later that day. Meanwhile, the race continues.) This explains the unfortunate state of the horse and the crowd's presence. The image likely documents a moment of pause and public witness to the animal's suffering during the festival. in The Hague, Netherlands
