Engraved by Henri Theophile Hildibrand, this masterpiece captures the essence of a traditional Muslim procession led by a revered holy man known as a Marabout. The image showcases an array of characters, each telling their own story. The central figure, the Marabout, exudes wisdom and spirituality as he walks with grace through the bustling crowd. His presence commands respect and devotion from those around him. Surrounding him are women dressed in hijabs, symbolizing their faith and modesty. They carry themselves with elegance while guiding children who look up to them with admiration.
