EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Home of Idle American Workman. Near Bridgton, New Jersey," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The image depicts a man identified as C. Everham, a bricklayer and plasterer, seated in a worn-out chair in front of his seemingly abandoned house. The sign bearing his name and occupation adds a poignant touch to the scene, emphasizing the stark contrast between his identity as a skilled laborer and the economic hardships that left him idle. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the challenging times during the Great Depression when unemployment rates soared, and the construction industry was hit particularly hard. The countryside setting of the image further underscores the sense of isolation and despair that many Americans faced during this period. Taken during Lange's tenure with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), the photograph is part of a larger body of work that documented the lives of ordinary Americans struggling to make ends meet during the Depression. The photograph was later made available through the Office of War Information (OWI) during World War II for use in newspapers and other media to raise awareness about the economic conditions in the United States. The image is a testament to the enduring power of photography as a means of capturing the essence of a moment in history and shedding light on the human condition. With its haunting composition and evocative subject matter, "Home of Idle American Workman. Near Bridgton, New Jersey," remains a powerful and enduring image of the Great Depression era.
