This lovely young lass appears to be waiting for something, perhaps to fill her "crock" from whatever is in the suspended container we see a portion of on the far right. I put quotation marks around "crock" because I believe the archivist who titled the photo identified her container improperly. It's actually a flat-bottom amphora, modeled after the famous greek containers of antiquity that are still being produced today (whereas crocks are circular but have completely perpendicular sides at 90 degrees to the base). This appears to be a pottery shop (something I'm very familiar with) and it's possible she's waiting to fill her amphora with liquid porcelain, which is very thin and poured into a mold (and the drip lines on the side of that suspended container look very much like drips of porcelain). As always, great job, Rob.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

Rob, you can deal with any antique B&W image whether it has a good quality or not. This one is a proof for that again.
Very interesting comment of 'Nik' above too. Puts the original image into perspective.
Another valuable addition to this impressive series, my friend!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
