EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by the renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, transports us to a new farm nestled in the picturesque Cow Hollow of Malheur County, Oregon. The image showcases both the resilience and hope that emerged during the challenging era of the Great Depression. Intriguingly, our attention is drawn to a basement dugout house in the foreground, serving as a reminder of humble beginnings and resourcefulness. Just beyond it lies an excavation site for a new house under construction - symbolizing progress and dreams taking shape amidst adversity. Lange's lens captures not only architectural elements but also echoes of rural life within this American countryside. The landscape surrounding the farmhouse exudes tranquility while hinting at the immense challenges faced by farmers during this time. It serves as a testament to their unwavering spirit and determination. As we delve into this still image, we are transported back in time – witnessing firsthand how economic hardships shaped communities across America. This photograph stands as an enduring piece of heritage art that documents not just physical structures but also intangible aspects such as regionalism and agricultural practices. Preserved within the Library of Congress' collection, Lange's work continues to resonate with viewers today. Through her lens, she immortalizes moments that capture both struggle and triumph – reminding us all of our shared history and inspiring us to appreciate our present circumstances even more deeply.
