Description

An African-American woman stands outside hanging clothes on a line strung between trees. She is wearing a long-sleeved, high-necked blouse and a long skirt with tiers. The clothing has a striped pattern with neutral colors. Several pieces of light-colored clothing hang on the line behind her. A woven basket filled with white laundry sits on the grassy ground near her feet. The setting is a grassy, rural field with a split-rail fence in the background and mature trees overhead. The light is soft and diffused. The camera angle is at eye level.
