Assignment #3 Writing on a historical photograph

This photograph shows a lady working in a factory. The factor where she is working at is currently where Rikers Island is now located at. The lady is wearing glasses at and a dress, ladies use to wear back then in the 1900's. She has short curly hair and she seems like she does not want to be interrupted. She looks like she is also trying to hurry up and finish her job, so she can go home to her family or maybe start on a new job. This lady looks like she is apart of the lower middle class. By describing what kind of social class she is from is can tell a lot by just looking at the picture. This is important because this shows why she is working in a factory. If she was a wealthy people then she would not be working in a factory. If you really look at the picture you can tell that she is moving very quickly and she is much focused. It looks like she is building little creatures, maybe little dolls or action figures little boys can play with. Little boys that are very young and they are growing up. It also looks like she is trying not to mess up or make any mistakes, while she is doing this. She has to use the desk looking thing and the black thing that is in front of her, so she does not mess up. After, building the little things she is building with her own two hands she is lining them up. She does is very carefully. It seems like her hands might be tired by now. She has to feel up the other drawer looking thing with those little things she is creating. Everything looks very organized. Maybe there might thousands of those figures!
