One-word or short-phrased responses in terms of its literal, representational content, underlying compositional structure and symbols:
Crowded. Depression. Long line just to get something for free. Sorrow. What people are wearing. Dressed nicely. Free soup. Waiting. Bad times. Inflation. Hard times. Reality of the depression and unemployment. Free coffee & donuts for unemployed. No jobs. A lot of people in the same situation. People don't care time in line with be long because they have no other choice. Black and white. Unfortunate.
This photograph represents a lot of people in line during the Great Depression. They are all in line to get free donuts, coffee, and soup. All the people in line do not look happy, but they give off this look that there is nothing they can do about it. They are all dressed nicely meaning they were probably looking for work that day and had no luck, so they have to go somewhere where they get food and drinks for free. Everything looks bland and there is no real sign of happiness. The way they are standing symbolizes no hope for work and there is there only option for food. If someone was visually impaired, I would describe it as a lot of people in a huge line waiting to get into this coffee shop to get free coffee, soup, and donuts. The people are dress nicely and still don't have work and all have a sense of sorrow on their faces.
