The image offers a vivid and authentic portrayal of a Brazilian farmer, skillfully riding his horse through the countryside, laden with bales of cotton. The farmer is dressed in a traditional smock, which is a loose, long-sleeved shirt commonly worn by rural laborers in Brazil during the 19th century. He is armed with both a musket and a saber, signifying his readiness to protect himself and his livelihood from potential threats. The horse, a sturdy and powerful animal, carries the heavy bales with ease, demonstrating the symbiotic relationship between man and beast in rural life.

The intricate handcoloring adds depth and texture to the image, making it a visually stunning and historically valuable piece. The lithograph is a precious resource for scholars, anthropologists, and historians, providing insights into the social, economic, and cultural fabric of Brazil during the 19th century. In conclusion, this image of a Brazilian cotton farmer riding his horse through the countryside, laden with bales of cotton, is an essential addition to any collection of ethnographic and historical art.
