Women picking tobacco leaves, 1937

A wide field of tobacco stretches to a row of trees and tall poles on the horizon; a line of women and girls in headscarves and aprons works along the rows, bent double among the huge leaves; in close view a young woman in a spotted apron and knitted cardigan snaps off the broad lower leaves one after another and tucks them under her arm, while an older woman works beside her. Tobacco was picked leaf by leaf, from the bottom of the stalk upwards, as each ripened.
