EDITORS COMMENTS
Possibly: Yakima shacktown, (Sumac Park) is a poignant snapshot of rural America during the Great Depression. Captured by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, this print transports us to one of several large shacktown communities around Yakima, Washington. In this image, we see a humble back yard filled with rustic shacks that serve as homes for struggling families. The dilapidated buildings stand as symbols of economic hardship and poverty that gripped the nation during this tumultuous era. Lange's lens captures the essence of rural life, showcasing the resilience and resourcefulness of these communities in the face of adversity. The composition draws our attention to a lorry parked outside one of the shacks, symbolizing limited mobility and reliance on road transport for survival. Firewood stacked nearby hints at their struggle to keep warm amidst harsh conditions. Lange's mastery lies not only in her ability to document reality but also in capturing human emotion through her lens. Although faces are absent from this particular photograph, we can sense the weight of despair and hopelessness that hangs heavy in the air. As we gaze upon this still image preserved by Heritage Art at Library of Congress' Congressional Library archives, it serves as a stark reminder of how historical photographs can evoke powerful emotions while shedding light on significant periods in American history such as The Great Depression.
