A tracker bent double on the rope

From above, a barefoot man in a short tunic and rolled trousers, a white cloth wound round his head, bends so far forward that his hands almost touch the sand; a taut rope runs across his body, and other ropes cross the bank behind him in long diagonal lines. The source counts the scene with the labourers who haul boats on China's rivers.
