A wider view of the scene surrounding the woman from the iconic photograph, revealing a dusty and barren encampment during the Great Depression. Weathered tents made of patched fabric and wooden frames form a makeshift community. Children with unkempt hair play quietly in the dirt, their faces marked with signs of hunger and fatigue. Nearby, a small fire burns in a crude stone pit, with a pot of meager stew cooking over the flames. A few adults sit on overturned crates, discussing their uncertain future, while others rummage through worn belongings. The atmosphere is heavy with resilience and despair under a hazy, overcast sky, with the barren landscape stretching into the distance.
