Yankai, Yunnan Province, China - 1944The elderly gentleman pictured is a farmer of southwest China. His interesting face is marked with character formed by many years of hard labor in the sun. His eyes and smile speak of better days ahead. He wears a leather cap that has seen many years of use. Its skull fit is different in design from most Chinese caps made of cloth. Dressed in his tunic, he grasps a hoe handle. The hoe was a tool universally used in farming. He is proud of his beard, because very few Chinese grew beards of this caliber.GrayscaleBox
