Political Prisoners in Jail on Con Son Island
Con Son Island, the largest island of the Con Dao archipelago, off the coast of southern Vietnam. In 1861, the French colonial government established a prison on the island to house political prisoners. Here the prisoners are making cane furniture. It looks likely that the card was sent by one of the French Warders
