Description
Photograph of a close-up view of a young fig tree, March 20, 1931. The thin tree stands at center with stiff, bare branches reaching from its top. The tips of the branches have been severed and only a few leaves still remain. The tree casts a skeletal shadow over the soil that surrounds it. Similar trees stand in rows in the background.
