EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ARKANSAS MOTHER, 1935" showcases a poignant moment captured by photographer Ben Shahn during the Great Depression era. The image portrays a mother and child from an impoverished Ozark Mountains family in Arkansas. Their faces tell stories of resilience and strength amidst challenging times. The photograph has been enhanced with oil painting techniques, adding depth and texture to the original image taken in 1935. This artistic touch brings out the raw emotions embedded within this historical documentation. During this period, when America was grappling with economic turmoil, migrant workers like this unidentified woman faced immense hardships while striving to provide for their families. The Farm Security Administration (FSA) played a crucial role in capturing these moments as part of their mission to raise awareness about poverty-stricken communities across the country. Seated outdoors against an early American backdrop, the mother cradles her baby tenderly, showcasing love that transcends material wealth. Her worn-out wool clothing reflects the working-class struggles prevalent at that time. This powerful portrait serves as a reminder of both human resilience and societal challenges faced during one of America's most trying periods. It stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of mothers who persevered through adversity for the sake of their children's future.
