EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Mexican quarter of Los Angeles, California. Average rental eight dollars. Some houses have plumbing," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936. The image offers a poignant glimpse into the living conditions of the Mexican immigrant community during the Great Depression. The scene is set in the heart of Los Angeles, California, where rows of modest houses line the streets, their exteriors worn and weathered. The houses, some with plumbing, are a testament to the resilience of their inhabitants, who managed to make a home amidst challenging circumstances. The photograph captures the stark reality of the times, with the occasional automobile parked outside adding a sense of contrast to the scene. The photograph was taken during a time when the country was grappling with the economic downturn of the Great Depression. The Office of War Information and the Farm Security Administration, for which Lange worked, documented the living conditions of Americans affected by the economic crisis. Lange's photograph is a powerful reminder of the struggles faced by immigrants during this period, and the importance of documenting history to understand the past and inform the present. The photograph, which is housed in the Library of Congress, is a testament to Lange's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, and her commitment to shedding light on the realities of American life during the 20th century.
