The image is a black and white photograph depicting an elderly man standing in the doorway of what appears to be a rustic wooden building. The door frame shows signs of wear, with peeling paint revealing rougher underlying layers. He wears a light-colored shirt tucked into his worn apron and has on work boots suitable for manual labor or farming activities.

The man is holding onto a metal rail that seems part of an interior support structure within the doorway. His posture suggests he may be contemplating something deeply, possibly reflecting on past events related to turpentine production.

In the background, another individual can faintly be seen through what looks like a window or opening in the wooden wall beside him. The overall setting evokes themes associated with rural labor and industry during an earlier era of American history.

The photograph is labeled "Dorothea Lange - Valdosta," indicating that it was taken by Dorothea Lange, known for her work documenting various aspects of life across America including the plight of displaced farmers due to Dust Bowl conditions in 1930s and early '40s. The specific reference points towards a turpentine stiller near Valdosta, Georgia.

The caption "652-8A0-C" is noted at the bottom left corner which may refer to an internal cataloging system or code used by the photographer or archive for organizing their collection of images.
