LIFE OF A SAINT
Mouride ideas and practices are introduced in a second gallery through the biography of the visionary Amadu Bamba. The saint’s many portraits are based upon the only photograph ever taken of him, and the "stations" of Bamba’s life are celebrated through glass paintings and other media.
