Looks like a sketch for a print or painting to be made doesn't it

I think one word at the bottom is STATES it would be the last word.......or STAIRS

The image most accurately depicts an African American sharecropper, probably drawn during the Dust Bowl-Great Depression era, IMHO. Maybe a blacklight would help read the faded writing on the bottom. Good luck, Sub
