President Roosevelt stands behind a “Quaker suit” with a tag that reads, “pacific speech of acceptance for campaign purposes,” and fires a revolver at the feet of the Sultan of the Turks Abdülhamid II. Sultan of Morocco Mulai Abd al-Aziz IV watches in the background with a sign that reads, “Perdicaris alive, or Raisuli dead.” In the distance, Ahmad Raysūnī watches from a cliff.
