S. Forrest (A. & C. Black) Countrywoman going to Market. The soil of Barbados is very fertile, the climate also being agreeable (for the West Indies), and the rural population are enabled to earn a good living by disposing of their produce in the towns. Thither they trudge on every market day, carrying their burdens, conspicuous to all owing to their undisguised interest and curiosity in their novel surroundings. Note : Oilette is a term used by Tuck & Sons to refer to their postcard series that reproduced scenes from specially commissioned paintings rather than photographs.
