Fun find! Here are some donkeys following behind in the SamarIa gorge in the late ‘80s : https://suejudd.com/2023/11/19/behind-2/

Your photo reminds me so much of my teenage summers. I spend them in Cavaillon close by. If I wanted to go to town (the family I stayed with lived in Oppède) I had to ride with them to work. Then I wandered around town for a few hours before the shops opened. 😍

Some quiet mornings! Arles is buzzing throughout the summer but it is still just me and camera and the street cleaners in the early morning.

It is one of many street art posters on 5th walls of Arles. I saw other similar ones.

Oh yes, the colour of stone, the cobbled streets and the lamps are very southern French to me.
