EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by the renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, captures a poignant moment in American history. The image features four young migratory potato pickers who have embarked on a journey together, seeking work and better opportunities during the challenging times of the Great Depression. The photograph is set in Merrill, Klamath County, Oregon, within an FSA (Farm Security Administration) camp. In this particular scene, the boys approach the camp manager to inquire about their eligibility for a hot bath. The response from the manager is heartening as he assures them they can enjoy a refreshing soak but requests that they clean up afterwards. Lange's composition beautifully portrays not only these resilient young men but also sheds light on important themes such as rural poverty and migration during this era. Their worn-out clothes and tired expressions speak volumes about their arduous journey and hard work as agricultural laborers. Through her lens, Lange captures more than just a group of individuals; she encapsulates an entire chapter of American history marked by economic struggle and resilience. This photograph serves as both documentation of an era long gone and a reminder of our shared humanity amidst adversity. Preserved by the Library of Congress' Congressional Library archives, this powerful image continues to resonate with viewers today—reminding us to appreciate our privileges while acknowledging those who have faced hardships along their path towards building a brighter future.
