This black and white photo entitled Migrant Mother shows a seated woman holding a young child in her arms with an older child standing behind her. The standing child rests his head on his mother's shoulder. Both mother and child look off into the distance with careworn expressions. The baby is sleeping. The family's tattered clothing, makeshift tent, and worn personal items; and the blank, flat prairie behind them seem to contribute to a sense of bleakness and isolation.
