"Drop of Milk" Association for the Welfare of Mothers and Children 3
Title
"Drop of Milk" Association for the Welfare of Mothers and Children 3
Description
Tired, overworked women with small children stand in line at a "Drop of Milk" station in an impoverished Łódź courtyard. Each woman has come with an empty vessel for receiving milk. All are shabbily dressed. Their square woolen worker's shawls (such shawls were factory produced to keep working-class women warm) serve as supporting halters for the rambunctious toddlers.
