Set in a colonial station in the southeastern corner of Victoria Nyanza, the narrative vividly depicts the stark contrast between the mud huts of the askaris and the more opulent quarters of the white officers. The scene unfolds with a military precision, showcasing the daily rituals of the station, including the commanding presence of Herr Ober-Lieutenant Hermann von Schnitzler und zu Pfeiffer. The imagery of the sunrise and the flag-raising ceremony adds a dramatic backdrop to the tensions and hierarchies of colonial life.
