EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph by Dorothea Lange transports us back to the year 1939 in Mission Creek, Idaho. The image captures a small privately owned mill nestled deep within the woods, its operations recently discontinued. Standing as a testament to changing times, this mill represents the decline of an era when large mills dominated the area. Lange's composition skillfully portrays the rustic charm of this rural landscape during America's Great Depression. The dilapidated structures and overgrown vegetation evoke a sense of abandonment and economic hardship that plagued many communities during this time. The photographer's use of black and white enhances the starkness of the scene, emphasizing both poverty and resilience in equal measure. As we gaze upon this still image, we are reminded of how economic recessions can impact even remote regions like Boundary County, Idaho. Dorothea Lange was renowned for her ability to capture poignant moments that revealed societal struggles while also celebrating regionalism and heritage art. Through her lens, she documented not only physical landscapes but also emotional landscapes shaped by poverty and adversity. This print is part of Lange's extensive body of work commissioned by government agencies such as Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI). It serves as a powerful reminder that behind every abandoned structure lies stories untold – stories that shape our understanding of history and remind us never to forget those who endured difficult times.
