Description
Photograph of the interior of a storage house for olive oil, ca.1900. The room's roof is comprised of a framework of horizontal wooden beams supported by rows of wooden posts. To the left are two rows of metallic barrels lain on the floor, instead of having them stand upright. At right are stacks of boxes, piled eight boxes high, with fancy labels on them that read "Olive Oil". Near the boxes is a wheel cart with more boxes loaded. Several men (one at right, one at left) stand around lounging, while two men in the back of the room are working near of the room next to the olive oil processing tanks (?).
