EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the devastating flood that struck Memphis, Tennessee in 1937. Taken by Edwin Locke in February of that year, the image showcases the destructive power of nature as the Ohio River overflowed its banks. In this snapshot from history, we see an exterior view of a house surrounded by water. The floodwaters have completely engulfed the lower levels of the building, leaving only its upper floors visible. The scene is eerily calm yet hauntingly surreal, with no signs of life or activity around. The flooding was part of a larger disaster that affected several states in the southeast region of America during this time period. Thousands were displaced from their homes and countless properties were destroyed. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of the immense challenges faced by those living through such natural disasters. Preserved over eight decades later, this print allows us to reflect on both our vulnerability to nature's forces and our resilience as communities come together to rebuild after tragedy strikes. It stands as a testament to human strength and determination amidst adversity. Granger Art on Demand has provided us with this historical artifact, allowing us to appreciate not just its aesthetic value but also its significance in documenting an important chapter in American history.
