Vue De Cedarhall Dans L'Isle d'Antigoa Aux Indes Occidentales
View through Europeana Collections
An engraving of the Cedar Hall plantation on
Antigua, made from a drawing by Stobwasser, and completed in 1830.
It shows the great house and a number of enslaved people, including
a chain gang and overseer, at work in the fields. As with many such
views, it presents an idyllic image of plantation life ? a view
which would have been far removed from the harsh reality of the
everyday lives of its enslaved population.
