Description
Photograph of a view of a farm house and vegetable garden, showing a small child, China, ca.1900. Two dusty furrows through the grass demarcate a winding, narrow path that cuts from the bottom left to the middle right of the image, and to the right of which a small child is shown in what appears to be a dress, next to the beginning of an orchard. In the left distance, a one-and-a-half story house made of thatched bamboo and corrugated metal can be seen on the fringe of a plowed garden in the foreground. Slightly to the right of this, a full-grown man can be seen trudging to the right. The rooves of more houses can be seen in the distance.
