The German title, *Getreidereinigung in Bosnien*, places this picture at the stage between harvest and milling, when threshed grain was separated from chaff, dust, and debris. Bosnia was under Austro-Hungarian administration from 1878 and formally annexed in 1908, and German-language captions like this one were common on photographs from the empire's territories. Images of rural work like this record farming methods that changed slowly in the countryside. Worth noticing is how much of this kind of cleaning depended on wind, sieves, and shared labor rather than machines.
