In this photo, young girls dressed as angels on Corpus Christi. They are dressed in white clothes, a scarf around their head and wear wings. They look at the photographer, hands clasped and with a serious facial expression.
The young girls are installed on either side of a staircase leading to the gallery of Cléophas Grégoire's family house.

The gallery is decorated with fabrics that are hung in the middle of the roof of the gallery. The tissues unfold downwards to the left and to the right. They frame a temporary altar placed on the floor of the gallery. Under this altar, other tissues that descend in front of it.

At the top, where the fabrics deployed on the left and right are attached, an inscription in white letters on a strip of black fabric: " VENITE ADOREMUS". Above this inscription, a cross made with branches of fir or pine and three small flags on the left and two on the right.
