EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, depicts a hop picker who was once a farm owner in Nebraska. The image showcases the resilience and hardships faced by individuals during the Great Depression era in America. Located near Independence, Polk County, Oregon, Lange's lens captures the essence of rural life amidst economic turmoil. The man portrayed stands amidst a picturesque countryside backdrop, surrounded by common hop plants (Humulus lupulus) that symbolize both his occupation and struggles. Lange's masterful composition highlights the stark contrast between nature's beauty and human poverty. The subject is depicted with a hamper at his side, representing his laborious job as a picker. His weathered face tells stories of perseverance through difficult times. As part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), Lange aimed to document the effects of the Great Depression on everyday Americans. This powerful portrait serves as an enduring testament to her dedication towards capturing social realities during this challenging period in American history. Preserved within the archives of the Library of Congress' Congressional Library collection, this still image evokes empathy and invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as recession, regionalism, poverty, and heritage art. It serves as a poignant reminder of how economic circumstances can reshape lives while also highlighting humanity's ability to endure even in adversity. Dorothea Lange's legacy endures through photographs like these – visual records that continue to inspire contemplation about our shared past and present socio-economic challenges.
