Scene in camp, Terai. Photographer: Bourne and Shepherd
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Landscape Photography
A rather dark print: 'No. 97 shows the outskirts of the camp on another side, and just before departure. To the left, behind the tree, a number of camels are already laden with their kajawars - square baskets of rope stretched on a strong wooden frame - in which saucepans and cooking-pots of all kinds, provided they be of metal, are carried. Just beneath the tree a cart is being packed. In mid-picture more camels are being loaded, or will be, so soon as the servants by the well shall have finished their last lingering pipe. To the right an elephant, with howdah, is waiting for some gentleman of the party, who apparently, from the absence of a battery, does not intend to shoot today.'
[Carbon print, 135x96mm].
