EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "TENNESSEE: FLOOD, 1937" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image captures the devastating aftermath of a flood that struck North Memphis, Tennessee in February 1937. Edwin Locke, an American photographer, skillfully frames the scene with his lens. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a flooded street stretching into the distance. The water engulfs everything in its path - houses, trees, and even parts of cars are barely visible beneath its murky surface. This hauntingly beautiful photograph serves as a reminder of the destructive power nature can unleash upon unsuspecting communities. Locke's composition draws our attention to the resilience of those affected by this natural disaster. Despite their homes being submerged and their lives disrupted, there is an eerie calmness depicted on the faces of these brave individuals navigating through waist-deep waters. The historical significance of this image lies not only in documenting a specific event but also in shedding light on rural life during that era. It provides us with valuable insight into how people coped with adversity and came together to rebuild their shattered community. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this remarkable piece from their collection for all to appreciate and reflect upon. As we gaze at this photograph today, let it serve as a testament to human strength and unity amidst challenging times throughout history.
