Description:

Two men carrying spears walking along the top of a brick wall next to the Sobat River at Nasir, with planted trees in a garden to the right, probably belonging to the American Mission which Evans-Pritchard revisited during his short period of fieldwork in 1935. The wall was possibly built to protect the garden from seasonal flooding.
