A man is running around the bonfire in front of St. Augustine's Church to celebrate St. Anthony's Day in Giovinazzo, Italy, on January 21. Traditionally, fires are being lit throughout the city of Giovinazzo to honor the thaumaturge Saint, whose hagiography is associated with the element of fire. Firewood is being used, with large earthenware vessels on top where fava beans are being cooked and will be mixed with olives, all accompanied by delicious red wine.
