Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

A digital scan of a photograph depicting rice fields at Turnbridge Plantation in South Carolina. The left and bottom edges show the water saturating the fields. The plants in these waters are flattened. Farther away from the camera, the brown tops of the rice plants that are not flattened extend in the distance, creating a horizon across the top third of the photo. Taller trees in the distance protrude above this rice-field horizon.
