Manager of Turpentine Still, Georgia, 1937
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a striking photograph taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange during the Great Depression era. The image captures a man, identified as Lee Russell, standing confidently in front of a turpentine still in rural Georgia. Dressed in work clothes and wearing a hat, Russell exudes an air of authority and resilience, despite the challenging economic conditions of the time. The photograph was taken during Lange's tenure with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency that aimed to provide relief to rural communities affected by the Great Depression. Lange, known for her empathetic and honest portraits of everyday Americans, captured Russell in his natural environment, highlighting the important role of the turpentine industry in the southern economy. The turpentine still, a symbol of industry and hard work, is prominently featured in the background of the photograph. The still, with its tall, cylindrical shape and intricate piping, stands in stark contrast to the simple, rustic clothing of the man in the foreground. The photograph offers a glimpse into the heritage of the American South and the industries that shaped its economy during the 1930s. The image was captured on nitrate film, a medium that adds to the photograph's historical significance and authenticity. It was later made available through the Office of War Information (OWI), another government agency that aimed to document American life during times of crisis. The photograph is a testament to Lange's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time and the enduring impact of the Great Depression on the American people.
