EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph by Dorothea Lange transports us back to the year 1939, amidst the heart of America's Great Depression. The image captures the exterior of a shower unit in an FSA camp located in Merrill, Klamath County, Oregon. A weathered sign reading "Ladies" hangs above the entrance, indicating separate facilities for men and women. The photo showcases Lange's remarkable ability to capture not only physical spaces but also the social and economic conditions of her time. As part of her work with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), Lange documented various aspects of American life during this challenging period. Through her lens, she sheds light on issues such as hygiene and sanitation that were often overlooked during times of economic hardship. In this still image, we witness a mobile solution to address basic human needs – access to clean water for bathing. The simplicity and functionality of this outdoor shower unit reflect both resourcefulness and government intervention aimed at supporting struggling communities across the country. Dorothea Lange's powerful photography continues to serve as a visual record that connects us with our past. It reminds us not only of our shared history but also highlights important themes such as resilience, compassion, and hope even in times marked by recession and adversity.
