EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "TEXAS: HOTEL, 1937" takes us back in time to the early days of Memphis, Texas. The image showcases the grandeur of The New Cobb Hotel, a prominent landmark in this small Texan town during that era. Renowned photographer Dorothea Lange skillfully captured the essence of this building's exterior with her keen eye for detail. The New Cobb Hotel stands tall against the backdrop of an American landscape, representing both progress and tradition. Its architectural design exudes elegance and sophistication while blending seamlessly with its surroundings. This hotel served as a hub for travelers seeking respite from their journeys through Texas. Lange's composition allows us to appreciate not only the physical structure but also the historical significance it holds within its walls. As part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), Lange aimed to document life during challenging times in America. Through her lens, she immortalized moments that would otherwise be forgotten or overlooked. This particular print is a testament to Lange's ability to capture not just buildings but also stories frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of our collective history and invites viewers to reflect on how places like The New Cobb Hotel played crucial roles in shaping communities across America. Granger Art on Demand offers us an opportunity to bring this remarkable piece into our homes, allowing us to connect with history and appreciate artistry at its finest without commercial intentions interfering with our admiration for such timeless works.
