Description
A man stands in an awkward position, presumably made uneasy by the insects covering him, as he explains the situation to a second man sitting in front of him. This picture is an illustration for the story, “The Adventures of Three Englishmen and Three Russians in South Africa.”
The caption reads in the original French: Cette invasion d’insectes.
