EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "RAILROAD TRACKS, 1939" transports us back to a desolate moment in history. Taken by the talented Dorothea Lange in October of that year, it captures the Western Pacific railroad line cutting through the unclaimed desert of Morrow County, Oregon. The image showcases the vastness of this American landscape during an early era. The horizon stretches endlessly into the distance, emphasizing both its beauty and isolation. The aerial view allows us to appreciate the intricate network of railroad tracks snaking their way across this barren terrain. Lange's composition skillfully incorporates a utility pole standing tall amidst this desolate scene, serving as a reminder of human presence in an otherwise untouched wilderness. This juxtaposition between man-made infrastructure and nature creates a thought-provoking contrast. As we delve deeper into the historical context surrounding this photograph, we cannot ignore its connection to the Great Depression. Captured under the auspices of government programs such as FSA (Farm Security Administration) and FAA (Federal Art Project), Lange's work aimed to document life during these challenging times. "RAILROAD TRACKS, 1939" is not just an exquisite piece of art; it serves as a visual testament to America's resilience during one of its darkest periods. It invites viewers to reflect on how our nation has evolved since then while appreciating both our natural landscapes and industrial progress.
