EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Dorothea Lange in 1939, we are transported to the Priest River Valley in Bonner County, Idaho. The image features a new settler proudly displaying the fish he caught earlier that morning. With a beaming smile on his face, he exclaims that he "likes it fine here". The setting is an idyllic countryside with rustic buildings dotting the landscape. A wooden door stands ajar behind the settler, inviting us to peek into his world. The worn-out porch and flickering lantern hanging above add to the charm of this rural scene. Lange's lens captures not only the physical surroundings but also tells a deeper story about life during America's Great Depression era. This photograph was part of Lange's work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), documenting poverty-stricken communities across the country. Through her artistry, Lange brings attention to economic hardships faced by many during this time. The milk churns placed near the doorway symbolize both sustenance and struggle as families relied on farming for survival. As we gaze at this powerful image preserved in nitrate negative format, we are reminded of our shared history and resilience amidst adversity. It serves as a testament to human spirit and hope even in times of recession. This remarkable piece from Dorothea Lange continues to resonate today as an enduring reminder of our collective journey through hardship towards brighter horizons.
