EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Well and old plantation smokehouse, Chesnee, South Carolina," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937. The image offers a poignant glimpse into rural life during the Great Depression, a period of profound economic hardship and social upheaval in the United States. The photograph features a weathered water well and an ancient smokehouse nestled amidst the rolling countryside. The well, with its rustic pulley system, stands as a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the rural community, as it provided a vital source of water for both domestic and agricultural use. The smokehouse, with its peeling paint and crumbling brickwork, speaks to the passage of time and the enduring traditions of the region. Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, captured this image as part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency established to provide relief to rural communities affected by the Depression. The FSA's Office of War Information later acquired Lange's negatives, which are now held in the National Archives and Records Administration. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the rural heritage of the American South, and the challenges faced by communities during times of economic hardship. The image invites us to reflect on the importance of preserving our agricultural and rural traditions, and the enduring strength and resilience of rural communities.
