The statue of the Madonna Desolata processes through the streets of Canosa di Puglia, Italy, on April 19, 2025, as a symbolic rite of Holy Saturday. La Desolata is the symbolic procession of Holy Saturday in Canosa di Puglia, where 400 women veiled in black shout a hymn recounting the heartbreak of a mother whose son has died.
