Hay harvest with a cart and cows, 1937

In a mown valley meadow below a dark wooded slope, two women in headscarves and a child kneel in the stubble by a basket, while a cow-drawn cart waits in the distance. Then a woman in a long apron walks toward a wooden ladder cart with a great bundle of hay balanced on her head, swaying under its weight. On small farms in the German uplands cows, not horses, pulled the carts, and the hay was brought in by the whole family, women and children included.
