Description
Photographic portrait of a woman landing a calico bass from a fishing boat, ca.1930. A woman, with a fierce expression on her face, is holding up a fishing rod in one hand over a rail and a calico bass, hanging from the stringer, in the other. She is wearing what seems to be a captain's cap with a buttoned shirt, with its sleeves folded up, over trousers. Behind her, the back view of men with rods is visible and the back of another one, located directly in front of her, is observable wearing a cap and a sweater with a scarf around his neck. Water covers the right area and fills in the backdrop.
