EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Possibly: One of the thirty-six members, Ola self-help sawmill co-op, Gem County, Idaho, 1939" captures a moment in American history during the Great Depression. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange, this image showcases one of the hardworking lumberjacks who were part of the cooperative sawmill in rural Gem County. In this powerful portrait, we see a man dressed in rugged clothing - possibly jeans and a work shirt - standing outside an old wooden building that serves as their workplace. His weathered face tells stories of resilience and determination amidst challenging times. The composition highlights his strong presence against the backdrop of the countryside. Lange's lens masterfully captures not only an individual but also conveys a larger narrative about cooperation and community spirit during difficult economic circumstances. This photograph is part of Lange's extensive documentation for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), which aimed to raise awareness about poverty-stricken areas across America. As we gaze upon this image today, it serves as a reminder of our shared history and how communities came together to support each other during times of adversity. It stands as a testament to human strength and resourcefulness even in the face of hardship. Dorothea Lange's legacy lives on through her poignant photographs like this one – capturing moments that resonate with viewers decades later while shedding light on important chapters in American history.
