EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Overseer in the Turpentine Woods," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in the year 1937 in the rural woods of Georgia, United States. The image is a poignant representation of the Great Depression era in America, with its raw and unfiltered portrayal of the harsh realities of rural life during this period. The image features a horseman, dressed in work clothes and wearing a hat, sitting atop his horse in a clearing in the forest. He is an overseer, responsible for managing the laborers in the turpentine industry, which was a significant source of employment and income in the region during the Depression. The turpentine woods were known for their dense, tangled forests, and the image captures the rugged, rustic nature of the landscape and the men who worked in it. The horsemen, with their horses, were a common sight in the woods, as they traveled from one work site to another, supervising the laborers and ensuring the efficient extraction of turpentine from the trees. This photograph, taken by Dorothea Lange for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), is a powerful reminder of the resilience and determination of the American people during one of the most challenging periods in the country's history. The image is also significant for its historical value, as it offers a glimpse into the rural South during the Depression and the important role that industries like turpentine played in sustaining communities during this time.
