Synopsis

Notes

Romanticised portrayal of Holland Estate, St Thomas-in-the-East, from James Hakewill's Picturesque tour of the island of Jamaica (1825). According to James Hakewill, "The view before us presents the approach to the works from the South. On the left is the Barrack, or residence of the book-keepers and other white people attached to the estate, beyond which is the boiling-house and still-house. On the right is the overseer's house, and in the distance, upon the hill, is the change-of-air house, for the use of convalescents on this estate."
