Description
Photograph of a woman cooking in Fillmore Street after the earthquake, San Francisco, 1906. A large woman in a dark skirt and light apron leans over a pot and makeshift stove at center. A man kneels next to her and several more people observe from the sidewalk behind her. They appear to be next to a brick, residential building that seems to be unharmed.
