EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937, captures the Large Turpentine Still and Processing Plant near Valdosta, Georgia. The image represents the industrialization of the turpentine process during the 20th century, signaling the decline of small, rural turpentine processors who traditionally tapped trees in the woods and processed the gum using portable stills. The scene portrays the imposing structures of the factory, standing in stark contrast to the surrounding rural landscape. The plant, with its modern machinery and buildings, symbolizes the encroachment of industrialization into the countryside. The era of small-scale, rural turpentine production was coming to an end, as farmers began leasing their trees to these large-scale operations and delivering the raw gum for processing. The photograph was taken during the Great Depression, a period of significant economic hardship in the United States. The image reflects the changing economic landscape and the challenges faced by rural communities as they adapted to the shifting industrial landscape. The Large Turpentine Still and Processing Plant near Valdosta, Georgia, stands as a testament to the evolution of the turpentine industry and the impact of industrialization on rural America. Dorothea Lange, a pioneering figure in American photography, captured this image as part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and the Office of War Information (OWI). Her powerful and evocative photographs continue to inspire and inform our understanding of American history and the human condition.
