Three People on Raft
| Three people on a raft, all wearing blue shirts. Two of the people are standing and holding shields and spears, while the third person is sitting in the middle near a large leaf shading their eyes from the sun. The person standing at the front of the raft has a large weapon sheathed at their waist, and has what may be a cigar in their mouth. In her journal from South Africa Carrie describes the "shocking blue" of the Zambezi River and the wide variety of boats, including "primitive rafts made of logs gathered together." |
