EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to May 1939, capturing the essence of a rural coffee shop in Alpine, Texas. The interior of this charming food counter is beautifully preserved through the lens of Russell Lee, an American photographer known for his documentation during the Great Depression. As we gaze at this image, we are transported to a simpler era where life revolved around community and good food. A worn cash register sits atop the counter, symbolizing transactions made with care and attention. The wooden chairs and stools invite weary travelers or locals to take a momentary pause from their daily routines. A hardworking cook can be seen behind the counter, diligently preparing meals that will nourish hungry souls. A waitress gracefully attends to her customers' needs while holding a menu that offers comfort food classics reminiscent of Southern cuisine. The atmosphere exudes warmth as sunlight streams through windows onto checkered floors. This humble coffee shop served not only as a place for sustenance but also as a gathering spot for friends and neighbors seeking solace during challenging times. Russell Lee's photograph captures more than just an interior; it encapsulates an entire era marked by resilience and hope. It serves as a powerful reminder of how communities came together amidst adversity under Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal policies. This print allows us to step into history, appreciating the simplicity and authenticity found within rural America's coffee shops like this one in Alpine, Texas.
