Aguilas unveils 2025 Semana Santa poster
The poster features the sculptures of three of the main figures paraded through the streets of Águilas during Holy Week
Although the Carnival of Águilas is still in full swing – albeit with some disruption due to the heavy storms which have battered the south-west of Murcia over the last week – the town is already preparing for the Easter processions which are held at the other end of the 40-day period of Lent which began on Tuesday, and this week the official poster has been unveiled for Semana Santa 2025.
The image chosen has been created by artist Juan Miguel Ojeda and features depictions of the figures of Jesús Nazareno, the Virgen de la Soledad and the Virgen de los Dolores, all of which are paraded in the Holy Week processions in Águilas. The poster was painted in watercolours and is in the French Modernist style of the early 20th century, with the three key figures in central positions.
In the background, meanwhile, are elements which definitively link the holy figures to Águilas, such as the Town Hall window which frames the poster, and the purple colour has been chosen to suggest the themes of penitence and reflection.
