Semana Santa Setenil, Viernes Santo: Good Friday

Good Friday consisted of processions put on by both brotherhoods, los negros and los blancos. The below photos are from the processions of los negros. The images carried in this procession are Nuestra Senora de la Soledad (Our Lady of Solitude) and Padre Jesus Nazareno (Father Jesus of Nazareth, or Jesus carrying the cross).




















Above you can see a stick used to raise the power lines so that Jesus' cross could pass beneath. This is right down the street from our house. 





The processions were accompanied by both the military and their marching bands. 




The processions of los blancos for Viernes Santo, and the pictures of the procession of Sabado Santo (Holy Saturday) will be updated soon!
