EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, captures the entrance to the Amalgamated Sugar Company factory at the opening of its second beet season. Located in Nyssa, Malheur County, Oregon, this image offers a glimpse into America's industrial landscape during the Great Depression. The imposing gate stands as a barrier between economic hardship and employment opportunities within. A weathered sign boldly declares "No Visitors - Applications Closed - All Openings Filled" serving as a stark reminder of the scarcity of jobs during this challenging era. Lange's lens skillfully captures both the physicality and symbolism of this moment in time. As we peer through the gate, we witness an exterior that exudes strength and resilience. The factory building looms large against a backdrop of open fields, reminding us of agriculture's vital role in sustaining communities across the country. This amalgamation of industry and nature speaks volumes about American ingenuity amidst adversity. Lange's composition showcases her mastery in capturing still images that evoke emotion and tell powerful stories. Through her lens, she immortalizes not only a sugar beet factory but also an entire chapter in American history – one marked by economic recession and perseverance. This photograph is now part of our heritage art collection at Heritage Images, preserved for future generations to appreciate Dorothea Lange's contribution to photography as well as gain insight into America's past struggles and triumphs.
