EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "MIGRANT WORKER, 1939. The home of the Fairbanks at the Vale-Owyhee irrigation project" offers a poignant glimpse into the lives of American laborers during the Great Depression. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, this image showcases a moment frozen in time. In this scene, we see a humble tent serving as the home for the Fairbanks family at the Vale-Owyhee irrigation project in Malheur County, Oregon. A horse stands nearby, symbolizing both transportation and companionship for these hardworking individuals who relied on manual labor to make ends meet. Lange's lens captures not only their physical surroundings but also their resilience and determination amidst challenging circumstances. The worn-out expressions on their faces tell stories of struggle and perseverance that were all too common during this era. As part of Lange's work with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), she aimed to shed light on rural poverty and document social issues affecting marginalized communities across America. This particular photograph is an enduring testament to her ability to capture raw emotion through her lens. The Granger Collection presents this print from its Carousel Collection as a powerful reminder of our shared history and serves as a visual tribute to those whose strength carried them through difficult times.
