EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Field with tree stumps" takes us back to the early 1940s in rural America. The unknown creator skillfully captures a poignant scene of deforestation and its impact on the countryside. The image, part of the Farm Security Administration's collection, serves as a powerful reminder of the environmental challenges faced during this era. The photograph showcases an expansive field dotted with remnants of once mighty trees - now reduced to mere stumps. These silent witnesses tell a story of human intervention and progress at the expense of nature's beauty. As we gaze upon this still image, we are transported to an era where farmland expansion and regionalism were paramount. Intriguingly, despite being taken during wartime by the Office of War Information, there is no explicit connection between conflict and deforestation depicted in this particular piece. Instead, it invites viewers to reflect on their relationship with nature even amidst global turmoil. The vibrant colors captured in this slide color print add depth and richness to an otherwise rustic landscape. Preserved within the Library of Congress' archives, this heritage art offers us a glimpse into rural life in mid-20th century America. As we admire "Field with tree stumps" let us be reminded that our actions have consequences for future generations – prompting us to cherish and protect our natural surroundings for years to come.
