EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937, depicts a former tenant farmer from Texas as he toils in the pea fields of Nipomo, California. The Great Depression had forced him, along with countless other displaced Americans, to leave his home in search of work. His worn denim bib overalls and faded dungarees, reminiscent of J.C. Penney's workwear, reflect the harsh realities of the agricultural industry during this era. The economic downturn had left him and his family with few options but to become farm laborers, picking peas for meager wages. The concept of displacement and forced migration is evident in this powerful image, which documents the struggles of the displaced and the impact of the Depression on rural America. The photograph, taken by Dorothea Margaretta Lange, now known as Dorothea Lange Taylor, is a poignant reminder of the human cost of economic hardship and the resilience of the American spirit.
