The photograph shows a scene in a grassy field in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. A European man, likely a colonial leader, sits in a hammock, being carried by four African men. Two of the men hold the poles of the hammock and walk in front of the man, while the other two walk behind him.  A small white dog is positioned at the bottom of the photograph, looking at the man in the hammock.  A caption below the photograph reads: "Usafirı kabla ya kujengwa kwa relı ulikwa mgumu. Hapa msafara wa wapagazi wa Kiafrika wakıwa wamembeba kiongozi wao (Mzungu) kwenye machela."  The English translation of the caption is: "Transportation before construction of Railway was very difficult. This photograph shows African Porters carrying their European Leader on a hammock."
