EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the rural landscapes of Vermont in 1941. In this snapshot, we witness a hardworking farmer engaged in the timeless task of stacking hay with a drop rake drawn by a majestic horse. The scene unfolds near Springfield, where nature's beauty merges seamlessly with human labor. Photographed by Jack Delano in August 1941, this image encapsulates the essence of American farming during that era. As autumn approaches, the farmer diligently gathers and arranges bales of hay against an idyllic backdrop. The midday sun casts long shadows across the field, adding depth to the composition. The significance of this photograph extends beyond its aesthetic appeal. It serves as a testament to the resilience and dedication of farmers who played an integral role in shaping America's agricultural landscape. This image is part of a larger collection commissioned under President Roosevelt's New Deal initiative, documenting various aspects of rural life through photography. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported to a simpler time when manual labor was at its core and technology had not yet dominated every aspect of our lives. It reminds us to appreciate both the natural world and those who work tirelessly to sustain it.
