EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Walker Evans in 1936, transports us to Hale County, Alabama during the heart of the Great Depression. The subject of this powerful image is Floyd Burroughs, an agricultural worker whose weathered face tells a story of hardship and resilience. Dressed in bib overalls and standing on a porch, Burroughs embodies the spirit of rural America during this tumultuous era. His attire reflects his profession as a farmhand, highlighting the importance of agriculture in sustaining communities like Hale County. Evans' expert use of photography adds depth to the image, emphasizing both the starkness of poverty and the strength within its subjects. Through his lens, he captures not only Burroughs' physical appearance but also his character - a man who has endured economic recession with determination etched into every line on his face. The photo's historical significance cannot be understated. It was captured under the auspices of Farm Security Administration (FSA) program initiated by President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal policies aimed at providing relief for struggling farmers across America. As we gaze upon this still image frozen in time, we are reminded that behind every portrait lies a wealth of untold stories waiting to be discovered. Walker Evans masterfully brings these narratives to life through his lens while shedding light on an important chapter in American history.
