IMAGE INFORMATION


Here a man and woman, copied from the watercolour by H.N. Binney (shown previously, in which they are getting out of a canoe), are now walking down a road near Charlottetown, which appears in the distance. The man is carrying furs, the woman still has the same fish, and they are accompanied by a young girl with a splint basket and a bedroll on her back. The woman's costume is heavily distorted by this copyist.
