Description
Photograph of a woman inspecting fishing nets, ca.1920. A woman stands on a dock to the right of center wearing a form fitting ankle length darkly colored skirt with a lightly colored sweater, a scarf on her neck, and short heeled shoes over white socks. The woman looks to the left at a wagon loaded with fishing nets while she pulls at a ring that extends out of the nets with her left hand. A circular net sits to the right on the ground in front of her while cars can be seen in the left background. To the right, ducks and boats can be seen on water in the background.
