![The image depicts a young boy tending to chickens outdoors in what appears to be a rural or farm setting. The sepia-toned photograph suggests it is from the early 20th century, likely around August of 1914 based on the information provided.
In this scene, we see a twelve-year-old boy engaging with several chicken, one of which he seems to be feeding using a bowl-like container in his hand. The child wears modest clothing appropriate for that era: long-sleeved shirt, trousers rolled up at the ankles, and boots, indicating practicality suited for outdoor work.
The chickens vary slightly in size and plumage, some with prominent combs on their heads which may suggest different breeds or ages. They are situated amidst a natural environment filled with foliage, possibly wild grasses or crops, giving off an impression of rural life during that period.
This photograph is credited to Lewis Hine, who was known for his work documenting various aspects of American industrialism and child labor conditions in the early 1900s. The boy's presence alongside chickens hints at a family farm setting where children may have assisted with daily chores before it became common practice during this time.
This image is part of an extensive collection found on "Work that Educates," which likely focuses on historical photographs illustrating different facets of work life, including agriculture and domestic settings like the one captured here.

![The image is a black and white photograph featuring three young boys standing side by side against an out-of-focus background. They appear to be wearing work-appropriate clothing, with two of them in suits or jackets paired with checkered shirts underneath, while the third boy wears a striped shirt without a jacket. All three are dressed in flat caps, which were common headwear for men during that era.
The tallest boy is positioned on the left and slightly ahead of the other boys, suggesting he may be leading their group. The middle boy stands directly behind him with his hands clasped at waist level, while the third boy has one hand resting lightly on a hip, conveying different levels of casualness in their stances. Their facial expressions are serious, reflecting perhaps their responsibilities or thoughts.
The photograph is labeled as depicting "Three of the youngest boys working in Holden" and provides additional details about individuals' names, addresses, occupations (which could be inferred from context), and locations: Bennington, Vermont. The historical significance lies not only in capturing a moment but also potentially shedding light on child labor practices during that time period.
