Colors of Il Palio

Inspiration: Il Palio horserace in Siena, Italy.
Twice a year a horse race known as “Il Palio” takes place in the medieval square (although oval-shaped) Piazza del Campo in Siena, Italy. Jockeys are outfitted in bold and bright outfits that represent each neighborhood, or “contrade”. For the residents of Siena, Il Palio is a tradition and a passionate demonstration of the love of their neighborhood symbolized through color, flags, and pageantry.
