EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Migratory woman, Greek, living in a cotton camp near Exeter, California," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936 during the Great Depression. The image is a poignant reminder of the harsh realities faced by millions of Americans during this period of economic hardship. The elderly Greek woman in the photograph is shown sitting outside her makeshift home, a tent in a cotton camp. The camp, also known as a Hooverville or shantytown, was a temporary shelter for migrant workers and their families who had been displaced from their homes and were seeking employment in the agricultural fields of California. Lange, a photographer for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), documented the lives of these migrant workers as part of the New Deal's efforts to provide relief and support to those affected by the Depression. The FSA's Office of War Information later distributed Lange's photographs to promote government programs and to raise public awareness of the living conditions of the migrant population. The woman in the photograph wears a simple, worn dress and appears to be deep in thought, her expression etched with the weight of her circumstances. The tent behind her is a stark contrast to the arid, barren landscape that surrounds her. The image is a powerful testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The photograph is a valuable historical artifact, preserving a moment in time that offers insight into the experiences of migrant workers during the Great Depression. It is a reminder of the importance of empathy and compassion in times of hardship and the need to provide support and resources to those in need.
