Farmer and Son near Stanton, Texas, 1937

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant photograph captured by the renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange. The image portrays the raw realities of the Great Depression era in the United States, specifically in the agricultural sector. The photograph features a father and his young son, both dressed in traditional farm attire. The father wears a worn-out denim shirt and bib overalls, while the son dons a simple cotton dress and a hat. They stand in front of an old, rusted agricultural machine, known as "Big Ben," which symbolizes the outdated farming methods and the economic hardships faced by farmers during that period. The caption "Haven't made a crop of cotton since 1932" adds a sense of desperation and struggle to the image. The father's expression is somber, reflecting the harsh realities of the ongoing economic depression. The son, on the other hand, looks up at his father with a curious and hopeful gaze, perhaps anticipating a better future. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and determination of farmers during the Great Depression. It also highlights the importance of agricultural labor and the challenges faced by farmers in maintaining their livelihoods. The image is a significant addition to the historical record of the Great Depression and serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by Americans during that era. Dorothea Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, captured this image as part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA). The photograph is now part of the permanent collection of the Library of Congress and is an enduring symbol of the human spirit and the challenges faced during times of economic hardship.
