EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a moment in the lives of a hop pickers family near Grants Pass, Josephine County, Oregon in 1939. Created by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange, known for her powerful images during the Great Depression era, this photograph showcases the harsh realities faced by American families during that time. The image portrays a mother with two young children amidst their humble living conditions in a growers camp. The worn-out expressions on their faces reflect the economic hardships and struggles they endured. Lange's lens beautifully captures the essence of motherhood as she focuses on the woman caring for her babies, highlighting themes of love and resilience even in challenging circumstances. As part of Lange's work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI), this photograph serves as an important historical document depicting life during one of America's most trying periods. It symbolizes not only the impact of economic recession but also represents hope and determination to survive. Preserved within the Library of Congress' collection, this still image offers viewers a glimpse into an era marked by hardship yet filled with human strength. Dorothea Lange's legacy continues to resonate through her ability to capture raw emotions while shedding light on social issues that remain relevant today.
