This print captures a moment in history on the Red River in Haiphong, Vietnam, circa 1900. In the sawmill, laborers are hard at work constructing a wooden boat, showcasing the craftsmanship and dedication of the workers. The intricate process of building a boat is depicted with precision and detail, highlighting the skill required for such a task.
The scene provides a glimpse into daily life in colonial Indochina, with French influence evident in the construction site. The presence of antlers and tree trunks as materials for building further emphasizes the connection to nature and traditional methods of shipbuilding.
As boats were essential for transportation and trade along the river, this image offers insight into how vital these vessels were to everyday life in Haiphong during this time period. The bustling activity at the shipyard reflects both industry and tradition intertwined along the shores of Vietnam.
Overall, this photograph serves as a window into early 20th-century Vietnamese culture and showcases the beauty of craftsmanship and hard work that went into creating essential means of transport.
