This carte de visite photograph by A. Sachtler, taken in Singapore between 1870 and 1900, depicts a man of Asian descent carrying two baskets of food on a pole. The man is wearing a straw hat, a loincloth, and appears to be shirtless, a common sight in tropical climates. The photograph is a snapshot of everyday life in Singapore during the 19th century, capturing the vendor's work and providing a glimpse into the diverse populations of the city-state during this period.
