Image description

The Muharram Festival at Calcutta, in 1882. Hasan and Husain, the grandsons of Muhammad, were both killed in such tragical circumstances that the memory of their deaths is still vividly preserved amongst Muhammadans, and has led to the performance everywhere of a Passion Play, known as the Muharram Festival. Part of the proceedings is a procession of tabuts or taziyas, models of their tomb at Karbela, near Baghdad. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920).
