Description

"Canoe on River", Calabar, late 19th century
Image of a canoe being paddled by 17 men on a river in Calabar (located within later day Nigeria). The canoe, which would have been one of the main modes of transport, is painted blue with a yellow interior. Houses can be seen in the background along the river bank.; Mary Slessor would have used this method of transport to carry herself and her medicines to remote villages.
