EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph taken by Dorothea Lange in 1939 showcases the Stephens brothers, proud owners of a cooperative combine, as they prepare to venture into their lettuce field after dinner. The image captures a moment frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the lives of hardworking agricultural workers in Nyssa Heights district, Oregon. The brothers stand tall beside their trusty Ford Model T car, symbolizing both progress and resilience during an era marked by economic depression. Clad in bib overalls and dungarees, their attire reflects the practicality required for farm labor. Their determined expressions reveal the dedication necessary to sustain themselves amidst challenging times. Lange's lens skillfully frames not only these men but also the surrounding landscape that stretches out before them – an expansive countryside representing both opportunity and struggle. The rustic building behind them serves as a reminder of the humble origins from which these farmers have emerged. As part of Lange's iconic collection commissioned by the Farm Security Administration (FSA), this photograph immortalizes an important chapter in American history. It encapsulates themes such as rural life, cooperation among farmers, and perseverance through adversity. Preserved within the archives of Congress' Library of Congress today, this image stands as a testament to Dorothea Lange's talent for capturing raw emotion while shedding light on significant social issues. It invites viewers to reflect upon America's agricultural heritage while recognizing those who worked tirelessly to cultivate our nation's lands.
