EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph by Dorothea Lange captures a moment in time that speaks volumes about the resilience and unity of American farmers during the Great Depression. Taken in West Carlton, Yamhill County, Oregon in 1939, the image showcases a group of hardworking individuals who have come together to form an agricultural cooperative. Dressed in their sturdy denim bib overalls and hats to shield them from the sun, these farmers stand proudly outside a rustic barn on the Miller farm where they are currently employed. The fabric of their clothing tells tales of countless hours spent tending to crops and working tirelessly on the land. Lange's lens not only documents this historic moment but also conveys a sense of camaraderie among these men. As they gather just before dinner, there is an air of accomplishment and hope for better days ahead. Their faces reflect determination as they continue to fight against economic hardships brought upon by the Great Depression. Through her powerful imagery, Lange immortalizes these unsung heroes - farmhands turned cooperative members - who found strength in collaboration amidst adversity. This photograph serves as a reminder of America's agricultural heritage and pays tribute to those who worked tirelessly to feed their nation during one of its darkest times. Preserved within the archives at The Library of Congress, this remarkable piece stands as both artistry and historical documentation - capturing not only a specific location but also embodying an era defined by resilience, cooperation, and perseverance.
