EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Skid Row. Howard Street, the street of the unemployed in San Francisco, California," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937 during the Great Depression. The image portrays a long line of men, each with a crutch or two, queuing up on a grimy sidewalk. The location is Howard Street in San Francisco, a notorious area known as Skid Row, where many unemployed and impoverished individuals sought refuge. Dorothea Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, worked for both the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and the Office of War Information (OWI) during the 1930s. Her poignant images of the Great Depression brought the plight of the unemployed and destitute to the forefront of public consciousness, helping to galvanize support for government relief programs. In this photograph, the men, their faces etched with the weight of their circumstances, stand in a somber procession, their crutches a testament to their physical and emotional burdens. The image is a stark reminder of the human cost of economic hardship and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The photograph, a nitrate negative from the Dorothea Lange Collection at the Library of Congress, is a poignant and enduring symbol of the Great Depression and the indelible mark it left on American history.
