EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a snapshot of life in this vibrant Caribbean town during the mid-20th century. The photograph, taken by Jack Delano as part of his work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI), offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and geographical features that define this unique location. In this still image, we see a colorful array of buildings lining a narrow street that winds its way up one of Charlotte Amalie's steep hillsides. The houses exude charm with their pastel facades and traditional architecture, reflecting the island's colonial history. A lone car parked on the side adds to the sense of timelessness captured in this moment. Delano's lens also reveals an aspect often overlooked – poverty. This neighborhood is home to many poor residents struggling to make ends meet amidst picturesque surroundings. Despite economic challenges faced by some inhabitants, there is an undeniable resilience evident in their daily lives. As viewers immerse themselves in this photograph from 1941, they are transported back to an era when America was grappling with global conflicts and seeking solace within its own borders. Through Delano's lens, we witness not only a physical landscape but also gain insight into social dynamics at play during that period. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation of life in Charlotte Amalie during the early 1940s - capturing moments
