EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Home of a Dust Bowl Refugee in California. Imperial County," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The image is a poignant depiction of the harsh living conditions faced by millions of Americans during this period, particularly those who had been forced to leave their homes in the Dust Bowl region of the United States and seek refuge in places like this makeshift camp in Imperial County, California. The photograph shows a simple, one-room dwelling made of scrap materials, with a chimney poking out of the roof. A domestic appliance, possibly a refrigerator, sits outside the home, suggesting that the occupants had at least managed to bring some semblance of normalcy to their living situation. The barren desert landscape in the background serves as a haunting reminder of the harsh geographical conditions that drove these families from their homes in the first place. Lange, a photographer for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), captured this image as part of the New Deal's efforts to document the effects of the Great Depression on rural America. The photograph is a powerful testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit in the face of adversity, and a reminder of the importance of social safety nets during times of economic hardship. The photograph is a nitrate negative, and is part of the Dorothea Lange Collection at the Library of Congress. It was taken during Lange's tenure with the FSA and later the Office of War Information (OWI). Lange's work during this period helped to shape the way Americans viewed the Great Depression and the plight of the rural poor, and her images continue to be an important part of the historical record of this era.
