EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937, captures the resilient spirit of a tenant farmer as he spreads grasshopper bait in his alfalfa field, just five miles from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The Great Depression had hit the agricultural sector hard, and farmers across the country were struggling to save their crops from devastating pests like grasshoppers. In response, the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency, provided financial assistance and technical support to farmers to help them implement effective pest control measures. The farmer in this image wears traditional farm attire - bib overalls and a denim shirt - that was both practical for the rigors of farm work and symbolic of the era's rural heritage. He carries a bucket of insecticide, ready to broadcast it over his field in a methodical, systematic way. The long, full-length shot gives a sense of the vastness of the farmland and the isolation of the farmer's labor. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by farmers during the Great Depression and the importance of government support during times of economic hardship. It also showcases Lange's mastery of capturing the human condition through her powerful and evocative imagery.
