Description
Photograph of a refugee camp, showing a crowd of refugees, San Francisco, 1906. A wooden cart stands in the foreground on the right with a large tree just behind it. Several men with packs at their sides and hats on their heads stand beneath the tree while a crowd of finely dressed people fill the field at center. Various trees surround them while a two-story house stands on the far left. Tents can be seen against the trees in the background.
