Surinam, NDJUKA-girl from the Maroon villag Stoelmanseiland, which pulls water from a rain barrel. In the interior of Surinam it is for the people difficult to obtain good drinking water. They are often dependent on rainwater collected in barrels. For reasons of health it is better not to drink the water from the River Maroni, that is at least unreliable, because of the mercury, used by golddiggers, in the water. Portrait of girl with sweet, lovely face and head, which looks, shy, straight into the camera.
