Putting in New Flues - Preserving Tradition and Battling Adversity in Rural America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by the renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, transports us to Orange County, North Carolina during a time of economic struggle – the Great Depression. The image showcases a group of hardworking men diligently installing new flues in a tobacco barn. These flues were crucial for curing tobacco leaves, as the fire burned out the bricks over time, necessitating replacements every decade or so. Lange's lens captures not only the physical labor involved but also conveys a deeper narrative about resilience and determination amidst adversity. In this rural setting, where farming was both livelihood and heritage, these men embody the spirit of American agriculture. The presence of an automobile parked nearby serves as a reminder that progress was slowly making its way into rural communities. However, it is their reliance on traditional methods such as brick furnaces that highlights their connection to their land and its rich history. Through her lens, Lange sheds light on the challenges faced by those living through poverty-stricken times. This photograph stands as a testament to her commitment to documenting social issues prevalent during this era. Preserved within the archives of Heritage Art Images at Library of Congress is this powerful visual representation of regionalism and perseverance - an enduring symbol capturing both hardship and hope within America's agricultural heartland.
