EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a powerful moment in the turn of the century American South. Taken by John Tarbell in 1905, it portrays an African American woman carrying a bundle of chickens and turkeys on her head as she makes her way to market. The image is a testament to the resilience and strength of this unidentified woman, who effortlessly balances the weight while standing tall. The composition beautifully showcases both the subject's physical prowess and her connection to nature, with feathers gently cascading down from her load. Her determined expression hints at the challenges she faces as she navigates through an early morning exterior scene. This portrait offers a glimpse into the daily life of African Americans during this era, shedding light on their vital role in sustaining local economies. Through Tarbell's lens, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in American history. The Granger Collection has preserved this remarkable piece that encapsulates not only one woman's story but also represents countless others who carried similar burdens for their communities. This photograph serves as a reminder of our shared past and encourages us to reflect upon how far we have come while acknowledging how much work remains towards achieving equality for all individuals regardless of race or background.
