Description

Material: paper. Size: 3 1/2" x 2 1/2". The black and white photo captures two young people engaged in surveying work, with one holding a measuring rod while the other peers through a theodolite atop a tripod, all set against a rural landscape featuring a dirt path and a body of water; both are dressed warmly in coats, hats, and boots, reflective of early 20th-century fieldwork methods in civil engineering or land surveying.
