EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Dorothea Lange transports us back to the small town of Elma in western Washington during the year 1939. With a population of only 1,545, this snapshot captures the essence of rural America in the midst of the Great Depression. The image showcases a quaint countryside landscape with rustic houses dotting the horizon, symbolizing resilience and simplicity amidst economic hardship. Lange's expertise in capturing human emotions is evident as she skillfully frames this still image. The dilapidated buildings stand as silent witnesses to poverty and struggle, while trees sway gently in the background, offering a sense of tranquility amidst chaos. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how regionalism played an integral role during this era. As part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), Lange masterfully documents not just physical structures but also conveys intangible aspects such as hope and perseverance within these communities. Her use of black and white film adds depth to each element captured, emphasizing contrasts between light and shadow. Preserved by the Library of Congress' Congressional Library collection, this print from Dorothea Lange's extensive body of work continues to be celebrated for its historical significance. It stands as a testament to both her artistic talent and dedication towards shedding light on social issues that shaped American history during one of its most challenging periods - an enduring legacy that remains relevant even today.
