Señor de los Milagros is a photographic project that documents a living, deeply rooted presence: the Peruvian community in Rome, brought together by a devotion that returns every October, filling streets, faces, and gestures with meaning.
Señor de los Milagros is one of the most deeply felt religious celebrations in Peruvian tradition. It is a time of shared spirituality, prayer, and belonging, when faith intertwines with memory and cultural identity. The celebration becomes a bridge between Peru and everyday life in Rome, a way to come together, recognize one another, and be together.
From the first arrivals in the 1980s, Peruvians in Rome have gradually built connections and a strong community, also thanks to this annual event. It is a moment when identity becomes visible and turns into a shared experience.
