Scope and Content
Digital copy of a photograph [black and white] of with a woman wearing a suit (possibly short sleeved) and hat walking along a footpath on the left hand-side of the image, with the back of a horse-drawn tar-sprayer dominating the image, with a man (facing away from the camera), in protective clothing and boots, applying tar on the wide road surface with a hand held hose / sprayer.
A substantial two storey building is in the background along with an electric street light. Trees, in full bloom, are also in the background.
The quality of the original photograph is obviously poor / over exposed as the image on the left hand side is blurred.
