EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Dorothea Lange transports us back to the rural landscapes of Sunset Valley, Malheur County, Oregon in 1939. The image showcases the breathtaking beauty of this agricultural region, with its vast expanse of hay and clover fields, pasture land, corn land, and grain land stretching as far as the eye can see. Lange's lens captures the essence of American farming during a time marked by economic hardship - the Great Depression. Through her powerful composition, she brings attention to the resilience and determination of farmers who worked tirelessly on these fertile lands despite facing immense challenges. The rolling hills in the background add depth to this still image while symbolizing both obstacles and opportunities that lie ahead for those living off this bountiful countryside. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of America's rich agricultural heritage and its profound connection to nature. Dorothea Lange was renowned for her ability to capture raw emotions through her photography. Her work not only documented historical events but also shed light on social issues prevalent at that time. This particular piece stands as a testament to Lange's talent in capturing simplicity amidst complexity - showcasing rural life in all its rustic charm. Preserved within the archives of the Library of Congress' Farm Security Administration collection, this photograph serves as a visual representation of an era defined by recession yet brimming with hope for a better future.
