[1926 or 1929]

Description:

The photo depicts a group of men posing on a sandy cliff next to carts filled with sand (?). Standing in the foreground there is a man in a suit. The poor quality of the photo makes it hard to describe it very precisely. According to the photo's owner, it depicts her brother in 1926 in the quarry or her brother-in-law in the sand mine in 1929. The photo’s owner is not quite sure in this respect ; The photo sent to the contest named “Photography of the Polish village pre-1948” organized in 1983 by the quarterly “Fotografia” (Photography) and the weekly “Nowa Wieś” (New village). Copy of the photo kept at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences (former Institute for the History of Material Culture)
