 : Italian farmer ploughing in Latium, 1940


Italian farmer ploughing in Latium, 1940

This photograph, taken on July 20, 1940 near Maccarese west of Rome, shows a young Italian woman plowing a field with a Caterpillar tractor. She is employed in agriculture as a tractor driver, as many men are away at war as soldiers. For fascist propaganda, images like this served as evidence of the mobilization of women's labor
