South Africa, Cape Malay Mullah,1840s

Karel, a Malay priest, at prayer. Cape Malays are an ethnic group or community in South Africa. By the 19th century, the term was used to describe anyone at the Cape who was a practicing Muslim. Most Cape Malays were actually from Madagascar and East Africa, shipped to the Cape as slaves from the end of the 18th century, who converted upon arrival. In 1846 George French Angas (English explorer and painter) went to South Africa, where he spent two years in Natal and the Cape, working on a series of drawings and watercolors which were published in 1849 as The Kafirs Illustrated.
