About the piece

Painted in 1832 by Auguste Roquemont, this detailed work depicts a 'Procissão' (Procession) featuring a large crowd of villagers, clergy, and musicians. The composition is filled with narrative detail, from the figures carrying religious icons to the drummers in the foreground, all set against a rugged mountain landscape with a small church perched on a distant hill.
