Cheikh Ahmed Tidiane Fishing Canoe

This vividly painted pirogue bears the name of a revered Sufi saint, Cheikh Ahmed Tidiane, reflecting the deep ties between Islam and daily life in coastal communities. Local children lounge on empty boats while fishermen prepare theirs for sea, continuing a tradition passed down through generations along West Africa’s Atlantic shore.
