Additional Details

One of a number of scenes from Stowe's tremendously popular anti-slavery novel, depicting Little Eva perched on a bale of cotton talking to Uncle Tom on a pier, the smokestack of a paddle-wheeler in the background. The primitive style of this engraving gives the effect of Eva almost floating in mid-air.
