Pickers on ladders in an orange grove

Among tall, dark-leaved trees, pickers work from wooden stepladders: a woman in a headscarf and apron stretches into the branches, a man in a jacket stands on the top step of a tall ladder, a young man in a short-sleeved shirt waits below, and further along the row more figures stand in the foliage. The source places the harvest in one of the largest plantations of Rehovot, a Jewish settlement founded in 1890 south of Jaffa and a centre of citrus growing.
