EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937, depicts the Plantation house where the Wray family has lived for generations in Greene County, Georgia. The plantation spans over 2700 acres and has a rich history, employing fifty tenant families in 1918 and a mere seven in 1937. The image captures the essence of rural America during the Great Depression, a time of profound economic hardship and change. The plantation house, with its grand columns and sprawling veranda, stands proudly amidst the rolling countryside, a testament to the region's agricultural heritage. The house, adorned with a porch that invites relaxation and reflection, has weathered the test of time, much like the resilient spirit of the people who have called it home. Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, captured this image as part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and the Office of War Information (OWI). Her work during this period, including this photograph, is a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by rural communities during the Great Depression and the New Deal era. The image is a powerful representation of the rural way of life in the American South during the 1930s, a time marked by hardship, but also by the enduring strength and resilience of the people who lived through it. The plantation house, with its rustic charm and historic significance, continues to stand as a symbol of the region's rich heritage and the indomitable spirit of its people.
