"Slaves Planting Cane Cuttings, from 'Ten Views in the Island of Antigua', 1823" is a significant artwork by William Clark that provides a visual documentation of the lives of enslaved Africans in the Caribbean during the early 19th century. This piece is one of ten in a series that collectively explores various aspects of daily life and labor in Antigua, a British colony at the time. The artwork depicts enslaved individuals engaged in the arduous task of planting sugar cane cuttings, a major agricultural activity that underpinned the island's economy.

The series was published in 1823, a period marked by growing abolitionist sentiment in Britain, and Clark's works are often interpreted as both documentary and as commentary on the conditions of slavery. The images in the series, including "Slaves Planting Cane Cuttings," are noted for their detailed representation and are considered an important historical record. They provide insight into the physical landscape of the plantation as well as the harsh realities faced by slaves, who were the backbone of the lucrative sugar industry.

William Clark's artistic approach combines attention to detail with a certain degree of stylization, which has been analyzed by art historians both for its aesthetic qualities and for the light it sheds on colonial attitudes and the complexities of depicting enslaved individuals during this era. The series, and particularly "Slaves Planting Cane Cuttings," holds a critical place in the study of Caribbean art and history, offering a window into the socio-economic dynamics of Antigua in the early 1800s.
