Description
Photograph of women cooking outdoors near a pavilion, ca.1930. To the left of the foreground, a woman in light-colored clothes stands next to a wooden sink with a brick base. Towards the center, there are four other women surrounding the sink: two of them are assisting the other two while using a long wooden stick to hold up a large metallic strainer that contains what it seems to be potatoes boiled in hot water. Behind these women and towards the right of the background, there are people stirring and cooking using large metallic pots positioned on a table. A pavilion is seen to the far left of the center and towards the background. Trees are shown in the backdrop.
