This portrait provides a glimpse of traditional wedding among the Tigrinya ethnic group in Eritrea. It shows a bride being taken to her groom's village on a mule's back with one of the best men co-riding sitting with her to ensure that she doesn't fall off and protecting her from sun using an umbrella; while the groom walks on foot with the rest of the best men plus other friends and family members who can be seen escorting them singing and beating portable traditional drum called Koboro.
