A farm woman gathers straw, Saxony 1937

A woman in a headscarf, a striped blouse and a dark apron works beside the machine, gathering loose straw from the ground in both arms and heaping it on a slatted wooden board; behind her lie a sand bank, bushes and a tree. She bends again and again, her face intent. On German farms the women carried much of the heaviest field work, while the regime's posters showed them chiefly as mothers.
