Hugo Larsen: Sugarcane harvest, St. Croix, (1910), colour lithography, 66.5 x 88 cm.
Immediately behind the sugar cane field you see the Centerline Road which connects Christiansted and Frederiksted. In the background is the sugar factory with chimney and sugarmill of the plantation Bethlehem. This was one of the last sugar factories in operation on St. Croix.
