This painting, dated of 1860, has been painted by John Antrobus, an English immigrated to the United States and relocated many times, including a period in Louisiana, where he opened a studio and executed a series of landscape paintings. This canvas describes a plantation of the Mississippi governor, Tilghman Tucker. In the XIXth, the "Negroes" were transported to the american coasts to be sold. From there, they belonged to their master and had to work in the cotton plantations. To ensure a total obedience, the poor slaves were regularly beaten and whipped.
