EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph by Walker Evans transports us back to the heart of Hale County, Alabama in 1936. The focal point of the image is a rustic fireplace, serving as both a source of warmth and a symbol of comfort amidst the trials of the Great Depression. Frank Tengles' humble home becomes an emblematic representation of resilience and perseverance during this challenging era. As we explore the details within this still image, we notice various advertisements adorning the mantelpiece. These promotional materials for Progressive Farmer and Southern Ruralist magazines offer glimpses into rural life at that time, highlighting agricultural practices essential for survival. Alongside them are cards depicting biblical scenes, reminding us of the profound role religion played in providing solace and hope during difficult times. The presence of medicine-related advertisements such as Alka-Seltzer and Thedfords Black-Draught Famous Family Laxative reflects not only physical ailments but also economic hardships faced by families like Tengles'. These products were likely seen as affordable remedies to alleviate common illnesses prevalent during that period. Walker Evans masterfully captures this scene with his camera lens, showcasing his talent for documenting American life through photography. His work under the Farm Security Administration (FSA) aimed to raise awareness about social issues while preserving our nation's heritage. In viewing this photograph today, we are reminded not only of historical struggles but also how communities united in their faiths, resourcefulness, and determination can overcome adversity together.
