EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Mexican quarter of Los Angeles. One quarter mile from City Hall, California," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936. The image is a poignant depiction of the living conditions in the Mexican immigrant community during the Great Depression. The scene shows a row of shacks, each with a small patch of land and a makeshift house, huddled together in a cramped and desolate area of the city. The buildings, with their peeling paint and worn exteriors, stand as a testament to the economic hardships faced by the residents during this period. The photograph was taken as part of the Farm Security Administration's (FSA) efforts to document the effects of the Depression on rural and urban populations. Dorothea Lange, a key figure in the documentary style of photography, captured this image using a nitrate negative, which adds to the grainy and raw texture of the image. The photograph is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress and serves as an important historical record of the time. The image is a stark reminder of the poverty and living conditions that many immigrants faced during the Depression era, and continues to be a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by marginalized communities in America.
