In 1853, Eyre Crowe, a young British artist, visited a slave auction in Richmond, Virginia. Harrowed by what he witnessed, he captured the scene in sketches that he would later develop into a series of illustrations and paintings. This book uses Crowe's paintings to explore the texture of the slave trade in Richmond, Charleston, and New Orleans.
