Five-year-old Ines Barbadillo plays the role of the angel during the "Bajada del Angel" festivity in Aranda de Duero, near Burgos, Spain, April 8. The "Bajada del Angel" festivity celebrates the appearance of the angel who announced the resurrection of Christ to the Virgin. In Aranda de Duero a child dressed as an angel flies through the air towards a statue of the Virgin Mary, whose head is covered by a black cloth, a sign of mourning for the death of Jesus. The angel removes the cloth, an expression of joy for the resurrection of Christ. |
