They are very common here. Also from her behavior while I was taking the picture, I decided she was also quite familiar with saki (sic). The lady in the background is grinding beans in a mortar and pestle type grinder." plain 2018-12-05T16:56:10-05:00 The Gail Project 1952-1953 Dustin Wright Charles Eugene Gail The Gail Project; University of California, Santa Cruz Used with permission Dustin Wright 6d413a48d8bd1bdac9b40c6c99f258b065f86ddaThis page is referenced by:

These images differ from those in the "Daily Life and Work" page in that here, labor does not appear to be the major focus of either Charles Gail or the people in the photographs. Instead, Gail seems particularly interested in trying to capture the portraiture (attire and physical characteristics of the people themselves), which he often described in writing on backs of the images.
