EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in Greenbelt, Mississippi in 1942, we catch a glimpse of domestic life during the mid-20th century. The image showcases an unidentified woman as she delicately retrieves an orange from her icebox. The simplicity of the scene is striking; it transports us back to a time when refrigerators were not yet commonplace in every household. The icebox, a predecessor to modern-day refrigerators, was an essential appliance for preserving perishable food items. As we observe the woman's actions, we can't help but admire her resourcefulness and appreciation for fresh produce. In an era marked by scarcity due to World War II, having access to such vibrant fruit like oranges must have been a rare treat. Photographed by Marjory Collins as part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) project initiated under President Roosevelt's New Deal program, this image serves as a poignant reminder of how everyday life has evolved over time. It captures both the resilience and ingenuity that characterized American households during challenging periods. This print offers us a window into history - one that invites reflection on our own relationship with technology and how it has transformed our daily lives since then.
