EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the vibrant and lively atmosphere of the Vermont State Fair, 1941. This print captures a quartet at an old-fashioned musical performance that took place amidst the bustling fairgrounds in Rutland. The talented musicians, dressed in their finest attire, transport us to a bygone era filled with charm and nostalgia. Photographed by Jack Delano in September 1941, this image beautifully encapsulates the spirit of American country fairs during the Great Depression era. As part of President Roosevelt's New Deal initiative, these gatherings provided much-needed entertainment and recreation for rural communities across North America. The quartet steals the show with their impressive musical prowess as they skillfully play their instruments - a fiddle and harmonica - filling the air with delightful melodies. Their passion for music shines through as they captivate both young and old spectators alike. Amidst all the excitement, one cannot help but notice the unique spectacles adorning some onlookers' faces or even catch a glimpse of a top hat worn by someone in attendance. These small details add to the overall ambiance of this enchanting scene. This remarkable photograph from The Granger Collection allows us to relive a moment frozen in time; it serves as a testament to how music has always been an integral part of our lives – bringing joy and unity even during challenging times.
