Sadie Wendell Mitchell is the name attached to this picture, which is titled "Dig," and the record places it among the book-related images in the Pictorial America collection. The record does not describe the setting or the circumstances of its making, so the title is the best guide to what the picture shows. Illustrated books and periodicals of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries often paired photographs and drawings with text, and images like this one were typically chosen to document a subject or support a story. Looking closely at the posture, the setting, and the tools or objects in the frame will tell you more about the picture's purpose than the caption alone.
