What the image shows
Three men stand around a large tree stump in a forested area.
Generated by LinkedCulture from the photograph alone, without the museum’s catalogue text (Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct), and not yet reviewed by a person. It describes the picture, not the object’s history, and it is not part of the museum’s record.
From the Getty Museum record
View of three men posing at the base of a large fir tree. Two of the men stand on springboards wedged on either side of the trunk, as the third man lies in the undercut made in the trunk. A two-man saw, also known as a misery whip, leans against the base of the trunk, and one of the men holds an axe.
