EDGAR ALLEN FARM, 1936 - A Glimpse into the Struggles of Rural America during the Great Depression
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This poignant print captures a snapshot of life on Edgar Allen Farm in December 1936. In an era marked by economic hardship and widespread poverty, the image reveals the resourcefulness and resilience of rural communities. The photograph showcases workers hauling old stumps from highway construction to be used as a winter fuel supply. The Allen family, like many others at that time, could not afford to purchase fuel due to their dire financial situation. This act exemplifies their determination to survive amidst challenging circumstances. Located near Milford, Iowa, this humble farmhouse stands as a symbol of both endurance and struggle during one of America's darkest periods. The snow-covered landscape surrounding the farm serves as a stark reminder of the harsh winters these families endured. Photographed by Russell Lee for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), this image is part of a larger collection documenting rural life across America during the Great Depression. Through his lens, Lee captured not only physical structures but also intangible aspects such as poverty and resilience. As we gaze upon this powerful photograph today, it serves as a testament to human strength in times of adversity. It reminds us that even when faced with limited resources and extreme hardships, individuals find ways to persevere and provide for themselves and their loved ones.
