A horizontal black-and-white photograph depicts a boy with medium-dark skin tone seated at an industrial sewing machine. He looks directly at us, his hands resting on fabric near the needle. A patterned, button-up shirt covers his torso. Behind him, several men with medium-dark skin tones work at long tables. Bright fluorescent tube lights hang above. Fabric scraps and loose threads litter the floor and wooden workbenches.
