Dated back to 1870, this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, when river travel was a common and essential mode of transportation in the United States. The men, dressed in simple work clothes and wearing wide-brimmed hats, are fully engaged in their journey, paddling in unison to propel the raft forward against the current. In the background, a paddle steamer or riverboat chugs along, dwarfing the raft and its passengers. The steamship represents the more modern and efficient means of transportation, contrasting sharply with the rudimentary yet effective raft.
