Brotherhoods in Granada prepare for Holy Week
A float bearer wearing a 'costal' is watching his companions, the 'Costaleros' of the Santisimo Cristo de los Favores brotherhood, as they carry a float before the processional departure on Good Friday of Holy Week during a rehearsal in Granada, Spain, on January 28, 2024. 'Costaleros' are the individuals responsible for carrying the heavy 'pasos' or images used during the Holy Week processions. They use a piece of sackcloth to protect their backs and heads, which is called a 'costal'. (Photo by Fermin Rodriguez/NurPhoto)
