EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "TEXAS: SHACK, 1939" takes us back in time to the heart of rural Texas during the Great Depression. The image showcases a humble shack nestled near Nueces Bay in Corpus Christi, serving as the dwelling place for a World War I veteran. Photographed by Russell Lee in 1939, this poignant snapshot captures the resilience and struggle faced by many Americans during that era. The worn-out exterior of the shack tells a story of hardship and poverty, while also reflecting the determination of its inhabitants to make do with what they had. In front of the shack stands a woman, presumably the veteran's wife or mother, accompanied by a young child. Their presence adds depth to this powerful scene, reminding us that even amidst challenging circumstances, family bonds remain strong. Lee's composition beautifully portrays both the vastness of Texas' southwest landscape and its intimate connection with those who call it home. This photograph is part of Farm Security Administration's documentation efforts under President Roosevelt's New Deal program aimed at providing relief to struggling farmers across America. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand an important chapter in American history - one marked by resilience, sacrifice, and hope for better days ahead.
