Family of Peter Mortaria,8 Downing Street,New York,NY,Lewis Wickes Hine,1912
Title: (See 2823) 8:00 P.M. and not yet finished. The little one on the left is not yet four years, yet she works, irregularly, on flowers all day and sometimes until eight at night. In spite of a sore throat she was working steadily all the time I was there, occasionally dropping a sigh that was very pathetic. Father said, 'She like to work.' Oldest sister, (who makes six dozen of these little wreaths a day), said the little one makes one dozen wreaths a day. See Exhibit 2875--the wreath upon which she is working in the photo.
