EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936, captures the reality of life at the El Monte federal subsistence homesteads in California during the Great Depression. The image shows a simple, four-bedroom house, where an eight-member family resides. The father of the family works as a streetcar conductor, earning a meager monthly salary of one hundred dollars. Despite their hardships, they pay sixteen dollars and twenty cents in rent towards the eventual purchase of the property. The homesteads were part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) program, established to provide temporary relief and support to rural families suffering from the economic hardships of the Great Depression. The program aimed to provide farm laborers, farm hands, and agricultural workers with the means to own their own land and become self-sufficient. The photograph reveals the stark contrast between the harsh economic realities of the time and the resilience and determination of the American people. The house, with its modest garden, stands as a symbol of hope and the promise of a better future. The children, ranging in age from one to fourteen, play and work alongside their parents, contributing to the family's subsistence. The image is a poignant reminder of the struggles faced by many during this period and the importance of community and perseverance in the face of adversity." Dorothea Lange's powerful and evocative image provides a glimpse into the past, offering a poignant and enduring record of a significant moment in American history. The photograph is held in the Library of Congress and is a testament to the enduring legacy of Lange's work and the importance of documenting the human experience.
