EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "The golden leaf, already graded by the farmers, sorted and wrapped... Douglas, Georgia, 1938," captures a poignant moment in the tobacco farming industry during the Great Depression. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange, the image shows a cart piled high with bundled and wrapped tobacco leaves, ready for auction. The farmers, both African American and Caucasian, have meticulously graded and prepared the crops for sale. The scene unfolds in the small town of Douglas, Georgia, where annual tobacco auctions were held. The photograph offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of rural life during this era. The people in the image, mostly farmhands and laborers, are depicted with weary expressions, reflecting the hardships of the Great Depression and the economic instability of the agricultural industry. The image also underscores the importance of tobacco farming in the region and the role it played in the local economy. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the past, showcasing the resilience and determination of the farmers in the face of adversity. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, one that continues to hold historical significance and cultural importance. The image is part of Dorothea Lange's extensive body of work, which includes iconic photographs documenting the Great Depression and the plight of the American people during that time. The photograph is held in the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical and artistic value.
