DescriptionThis image depicts three unidentified employees in the kitchen area of the Hilton Hotel at Second Street and Copper Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The small group consists of two women and one man. The two women are standing in the foreground on either side of a portable food warmer. The warmer has wheels at its base and is roughly the size of the average refrigerator. The two women are wearing light colored v-neck dresses with light colored aprons tied around their waists. Both are pushing the warmer towards the left side of the frame. In the background, near the left side of the frame, a man is looking down at the handle of another warmer. He is wearing a light-colored shirt, a dark colored leopard patterned tie, and dark colored pants. A portion of a wooden door can be seen in the background behind the people. The floor is made of wood.On View
