EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured by the talented Dorothea Lange in 1939, showcases a man who embodies resilience and determination. Titled "Possibly: Farmer from Nebraska now developing eighty-acre stump farm, Bonner County, Idaho" this image transports us to an era marked by economic hardship - the Great Depression. In this powerful portrait, we see a middle-aged farmer clad in bib overalls and a worn-out coat. His weathered face reflects years of hard work under the unforgiving sun. Standing against a backdrop of cutover land, he symbolizes hope amidst adversity as he develops his eighty-acre stump farm. Lange's lens captures not only the physical appearance of this man but also his spirit. The hat perched on his head speaks volumes about his connection to the land and his role as a steward of nature. It is evident that farming is more than just an occupation for him; it is ingrained in every fiber of his being. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by rural communities during that tumultuous time in American history. Through Lange's lens, we witness both poverty and perseverance intertwined within one frame. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Dorothea Lange's collection at the Library of Congress, we are transported back to an era when strength was found in simplicity and resilience thrived amidst struggle.
