Grenada Sugar Canal

A black-on-white outline depicting a man carrying something resembling a box camera. He wears brogue shoes, a white shirt and shorts. We can’t see his face under his hat, but he surveys a set of buildings including a windmill, a distant factory and a set of workers houses. The scene is reflected in the canal beneath. He is accompanied by a small black dog.
