- Synopsis
- This image shows two people, one on the left and one on the right of the page. There is also a rickshaw which is mainly on the left. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The people are shown from the side so only one eye and arm can be found. The person on the left is facing right sitting in the rickshaw. In the top left of the image is the canvas roof of the rickshaw. It is held up by four metal stays (only two are shown), which can fold up together, folding the roof up like a pram hood. Down from the roof is the man's head facing right. The top of his head is hidden by the roof. To the left of his upper body is a hard vertical backrest. His arm comes down and goes to the right with his hand near his knee. His bottom, most of his leg and foot is hidden by the sidewall of the rickshaw. Down from the rickshaw body is one of the two large spoked wheels. Going right from the bottom of the rickshaw body is a pole. This goes to the right of the image where it is held by the other man. The structure of the rickshaw that supports and connects the body to the wheel axle has not been shown for clarity. The person on the right of the page is shown walking and facing to the right. He has short dark brown hair and wears a pale grey cotton vest. His upper arm goes down and left, bends at the elbow and runs right, along the rickshaw pole. He holds the end of the pole as he pulls the rickshaw along. There will be a second pole also attached to the rickshaw body on the other side of the man which he will pull with his other arm. Down from his arm are his legs which are apart as he walks. He wears blue trousers. He has lightweight shoes on his feet at the bottom of the page. Hand-pulled rickshaws are being replaced by cycle rickshaws. A cycle rickshaw is a large tricycle with a seat for two people to sit between the two rear wheels.
