1. A black and white photograph featuring a man standing in front of an old wooden house with a porch, situated on the side of a dirt road. A person is seated at a small table under the sheltered area beside the door. The house has visible signs of wear and weathering. In front of the house sits a large tractor labeled "Fordson," indicative of early agricultural equipment used in farming activities during the time period suggested by the black-and-white image quality, which might be around the 1930s based on historical context provided in caption text. The photograph is part of an archive from Dorothea Lange's work with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), documenting rural life and agricultural laborers. The man appears to belong to a community working under challenging conditions, as indicated by his attire and posture. His expression suggests contemplation or fatigue.
