- Description
Foelsche's enthusiasm for photographic composition sometimes overshadowed the main subject. The cart and the buggy frame his foreground cast of characters. At left, the two Chinese men provide a smaller frame for two Aboriginal stockmen. Between them, the eye is drawn to the edge of a distant building. On the right, the two European stockmen appear to be regarding the dog on the horse's back. But both the horse and dog are looking towards the last character - a seated man neatly framed by the stockman's arm, horse's head and bridle.
