In the 1850s, portrait painter George Fuller (1822-1884) of Deerfield, Massachusetts, traveled through South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama sketching enslaved people and plantation life. His images provide a rare glimpse of slavery in the Deep South before the Civil War (1861-1865.) This drawing is one of three Fuller made of the interior of housing for enslaved people on a plantation.
