EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "CORN FIELD, 1940" transports viewers back to a simpler time in rural America. Taken by Marion Post Wolcott in October 1940 near Marion, Virginia, the image showcases the beauty of an autumn cornfield against the backdrop of a farm. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see rows upon rows of tall corn shocks standing proudly amidst the vast field. These carefully arranged shocks not only serve as markers for harvesting but also add visual interest to the landscape. The wooden fences that enclose the field provide structure and boundary to this idyllic scene. The photograph is reminiscent of a pivotal era in American history - the Great Depression and New Deal era. As part of President Roosevelt's Farm Security Administration (FSA) initiative, Wolcott documented life on farms across America during this challenging period. Her photographs aimed to raise awareness about rural poverty while highlighting government efforts to support struggling farmers. Through her lens, Wolcott captures both the resilience and beauty found within agricultural communities during difficult times. This particular image serves as a testament to hard work and perseverance in Middle America. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand collection, we are transported into an autumnal world where nature's bounty meets human determination – reminding us of our shared history and inspiring us with hope for brighter days ahead.
