EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Oklahomans trying to make a new start in California. Near Los Angeles," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936. The image documents the plight of displaced Oklahoman farmers during the Great Depression, who were forced to leave their homes and embark on a perilous journey west in search of new opportunities. The haunting scene captures a group of weary travelers, huddled together against the backdrop of a barren, rocky landscape, with the imposing presence of mountains in the distance. The desolation and desperation etched on their faces speak volumes of the hardships they had endured and the uncertain future that lay ahead. Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, captured this image as part of her work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency established to provide relief to rural communities affected by the Great Depression. The FSA's Office of War Information later acquired Lange's negatives, including this one, which are now housed in the Library of Congress. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human cost of economic displacement and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Dorothea Lange's powerful and evocative imagery, which continues to inspire and provoke thought on the complexities of the human condition.
